Overrated and overhyped
A brilliant film that helped define a genre
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Danny Dyer, like Michael Cain, seems to suit every role he plays. Don't read any more if you don't want to know about this film.Basically this movie is not so much action packed. It is just Danny Danny acting the bad guy, which I don't like. I found this movie less than engrossing, but none the less very real.Danny Dyer kidnaps a woman, goes on the run in her car, and she ends up spiking his drink, and she knifes him.She then walks away with Danny Dyer lying on the ground, dead.This movie reveals to me how easy Danny Danny, like Michael Cain, seems to fit every role he takes. But I still don't like him playing the bad guy.
Can't believe I actually just watched this until the end. This film is bad, really bad, bad acting, bad script. I don't know why Danny Dyer even bothers taking films like this.Half way through I actually thought it was a comedy, the characters are so dull and as for the guy at the petrol station and the policeman omg. It looked as if the makers had just grabbed people off the street and told them to read a few lines.Don't bother with this film complete waste of timeI actually think this has finished him as an actor looks like he's only doing it for the money, mind you I don't even think he should be paid after watching this.
I'm a pretty big Danny Dyer film fan, sadly, he ticked no boxes with this role. There was no physiological tension between the two of them, the spaces between were of uncomfortable silence, not suspense. I thought Danny Dyer took this character of Norton to far, it was unconvincing. By 30 minutes in I wanted to turn off, the first Dyer film to do that to me, but I didn't want to waste my £3.80 that I payed to Sky Bob Office, 90minutes of my life I won't get back, and that's not even starting on the ending. Regardless of if what ''Amber'' gave ''Norton'' is realistic or not ''her being a nurse and all..'' is irrelevant, it's more the sheer terrible decision to end it that way, to even include that in the plot. The acting from the other guys is a little left to be desired to, the guy who attacked Norton in the street with a bit of wood, looked like he was tickling him..Awful.
My OH ordered this film on Bluray as he loves Danny Dyer. Although I have never been the biggest Dyer fan, I was pulled into this story straight away - it was scary and tense and I just wanted Amber to get away from Frankie. In my opinion, Danny Dyer played this different character really well and Anna Walton was very good as the kidnapped nurse trying to keep ahead of him. There were a few moments that made me feel a bit queasy and uneasy but that shows they did what they were meant to. The weirdest thing for me was I felt sorry for Frankie at the end, making me think quite a lot about it. That to me, is the sign of a decent film.I will most definitely be watching this film again, as will my OH who also enjoyed it a lot.
