SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

ArchieIsCool As usual I saw Ray Winstone and thought oh sounds a good film, boy was I wrong Most of her film is set in Italy following Glen Murphy's character walking about fields and tight streets meeting an Italian cafe owner and getting involved in his granddaughters English boyfriend meetings but no one really sees him only this old man, Ray plays Glens dad and is a nasty piece of work this is in flashbacks .I couldn't make sense of this film it was too boring but I think Glen's character is actually dead and that's why no one sees him except the old man who I think is his grandad or great grandad I don't know blooming awful and a waste of time.

peter-martin-899-161468 I've only just registered on IMDb so that I could comment on this movie. A very misleading video cover, and an absolute rubbish movie. Honestly it would be impossible to write a spoiler for this movie, it is just so awful. It is obvious from the get go that the guy is dead and this is some sort of spaghetti western style morality play. The acting is very poor and is reminiscent of the made for late night TV films pumped out of British budget studios during the 1960s and 70s. I still remember Ray in Sexy Beast - great film. When I saw Ray on the cover I thought "Hell Yeah - this'll be good". It was very dishonest marketing and a thorough waste of my time and money. I read one or two good reviews of this movie and I can only assume that those reviewers are either bots or extremely bored and far too easily pleased.

luiser-898-616536 Wow. This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Basically you figure out the whole story within the first 10 minutes of the movie (not kidding) and then spend the rest of this 90 minute snooze fest waiting for the main character to figure it out as well. Main characters that behave unbelievably stupid and take painfully long to figure out the obvious are nothing new, but this one might seriously be a contender for worst of all time. To add insult to injury, the director probably thinks his audience is equally retarded, as the same hints at the big mystic truth get repeated over and over again in more and more obvious fashion until even a braindead monkey would understand what its all about. Since that is basically the whole film, you are looking at 90 minutes of countless repetitions of the same scenes in minor variations.This wouldn't be as bad as it is, if these scenes weren't completely boring and meaningless once there is no mystery left which they help to uncover (which again, you basically have it all figured out 10 minutes into the movie, guaranteed!) I really wonder how this could win awards. Also this has not much to do with a Gangster film, the title poster is VERY misleading. This is my first review, I actually made an account just to warn people of this extremely bad movie.

Brian Harvey Picked this up on DVD cheaply as a new release so wasn't expecting much, maybe a low grade gangster flick, but it is a well put together and thought out film, with good performances and some very clever plotting.Not really a gangster film in the true sense of the genre, excellent twist and good idea from Glen Murphy.Winstone is at his snarling malevolent best, obviously doing friend Murphy a favour in appearing but gives a strong performance as an unlikeable bully.Well worth a watch, one of the best thought out and most original films I've seen in a while
