good film

[lucyhuk · 6/10 · 19 February 2014]

good low budget British film is it based

on old school south London villains stedman and creamer.

Easy to watch film love that it was filmed at catford dog track brings back some old memories.

thought the film was quite funny a cheap film but was worth a watch if you like British crime caper films like lock stock and snatch then you probably like this .i rate it an OK 6 out of 10 and i thought bobby george's acting was OK for a darts player also i recognised some of the other actors from British TV would be great to see a second film or a spin off film about some of the other characters in the story.

Worth Watching

I was mainly drawn to this film for the sole reason that Darts King Bobby George was starring in it. When I found out that Billy Murray (Don Beech from "The Bill") was also starring and the fact that the film is of the "Lock Stock" genre, I decided to give it a whirl. I was not disappointed. Whilst not a classic there was enough good dialog and more than a couple of laugh out loud moments to make the film an enjoyable experience. A lot of people will compare this to "Lock Stock" and even call it a cheap rip off but I think it does enough to be able to step out of this shadow. All in all I would recommend you see the film and make up your own mind.

I really Enjoyed It

Saw a early edit of this film and really enjoyed it, It was well put together with nice edits and and was a real tongue in cheek look at the gangster film genre. Worth a look If your into the London scene. Soundtrack was great and well put together and the effects were great. Really liked the actors in it and hope to see the final film when it is released. Bobby George, what a legend!!!! ...

Another blatant SNATCH rip-off

As if there weren't enough of those, we get another Guy Richie wannabe.

It's a pathetic sight. All the action is absent so all we get is street-wise, unfunny and riddled with swearing dialogue. You hardly understand half of it anyway, cos the different accents are so heavy. Anyhow, the actors did their best with this low budget rip-off, and the music was spot on. The rest of it is a waste of your time. Avoid.

What a movie!!!

I saw a preview of this movie the other day and must say what a refreshing change to the boring unrealistic gangster flick, no guns just razor sharp humour. I loved the jokes about Eastenders and thought the lads were a great group (Watch out for Craig and Terry they really steal the film) Really something for everyone as all the people at the screening enjoyed the film for different things. I can't wait to buy a copy for home.

Absolute rubbish

I think the 2 users leaving positive comments above need a serious education in film, are short sighted or know the director Mr Pavey and are being nice!

Either way this film falls down on so many levels I dont know where to start. Bad script, bad acting, bad story... Guy Ritchie did it better so why copy!? The music is the only redeaming feature , I like my drum n bass, but that really is nothing to do with the film. I would rather listen to the music on a cd!!! I cant believe Mr Pavey has been given the money and resources to produce

such tripe when there are hundreds of other good directors and scripts out there waiting to be made. What a waste of time... Mr Pavey please think about doing something else for a living!
