10/10
Very powerful, thought provoking British indie.
15 June 2004
I am typically an action movie fan and not often does a drama catch my attention but this one did. I was caught up in the story from the opening scene and by the end of the movie I was sobbing. This movie really touched me. My emotions really welled up and had to be released by movies end. This is definitely a must see movie. Saeed Jaffrey & Rik Mayall were outstanding with the supporting players for the most delivering great subtle performances. This script was well written and executed, Kudos to Brady on taking a storyline that has been presented before in 24 and giving it a low key realistic British spin. His storyline keeps you on the edge, interested and anticipating the outcome. At times I was confused, but he did a marvelous job tying it all together at the end, which was unusually dark and with little resolution, kind of like life. I highly recommend this movie.
