“This is a good example of when the writer and director get together and try to be artsy. Most of the dialog isnu0026#39;t bad, and most of the acting is at least par. But man they have these scenes, slow mo, and in u0026quot;spaceu0026quot; that just sink this movie. Itu0026#39;s like they were looking for 40 minutes of filler to extend this crap into some series instead of just telling the story. They werenu0026#39;t even montage worth scenes, itu0026#39;s like they watched pulp fiction and tried to implement it but failed full out. They took up such a large portion of this first part that it was almost unwatchable. The story of the Krays has so much potential, however you wonu0026#39;t see that here! Itu0026#39;s simply not scripted well enough to make the story of two kick ass twin brother gangsters good. With so much source material itu0026#39;s a sad statement that they couldnu0026#39;t get it right. You can not simply depict people as crazy by having slow mo space screens with them holding a gun. What ever this director was thinking when he shot this, or the write was thinking when they wrote it just makes my head hurt. This movie is exhibit A on what not to do when writing a movie.”
