“Saw this at the London Film Festival premiere last night. Itu0026#39;s a well-made and engaging low-budget crime film, with excellent acting and music. Neil Maskell and David Hayman give dependably good performances. Itu0026#39;s very much along the lines of Dead Manu0026#39;s Shoes and Kill List, although lacking the flair, originality and imagination of those classics. Hard geezer seeks revenge, with over-the-top violence and nasty, humourless working-class gangsters. A grim and dour tone. Some nicely choreographed stabbings and gunshots. Itu0026#39;s nothing new, but it does it satisfactorily and holds your attention.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s a great shame then that the film is almost fatally marred by a bizarre and poorly thought-through conclusion that had to make me wonder why not a single person on the team of this production said u0026#39;um, hang on a minute, are we really going with this ending..?u0026#39;.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s just wrong for the tone of the film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI can see what they were aiming for, as itu0026#39;s been done before in one of the best crime films ever made, but here they mess it up by not setting it up correctly, and in the process almost wreck a perfectly workable film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAll in all, despite this flaw, this is worth a watch, as it is undeniably entertaining.”
