It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Like other reviewers, I really wanted to like this film.. and, billed as the British "Bound" - or as in the same vein as, I gave it a try... I'm sorry, really, but this poor effort comes nowhere remotely near such a high-class and polished production as Bound..! Poor Alan Ford struggles bravely with a stodgy, pedestrian and often fatuous script, dire direction, laughable lighting and sound sets and some seriously wooden performances from his fellow actors... To be honest, this is something born out of a drunken, adolescent 1st year art/film school project... It is painful to watch, not merely because of the highly stereotyped characters and the lazy dialogue, but also because of some of the worst Dogma 95 post production (attempts) I have ever seen, the terrible low-budget cinematography (the POV camera shots are seriously amateurish) and the seriously lack-lustre direction. This feeble dog's dinner should be avoided at all costs... Sorry, but it is not often I say this: a complete waste of time and effort.

I have been lucky in getting a preview of this film starring Alan Ford. I had an idea of what to expect considering the aforementioned actor and I was not disappointed. I love everything about raw gritty British gangster films - but for those of you who are getting a bit bored of Guy Ritchie's endless take on the genre then check out this fresh breath of air. There is a very real and dark atmosphere to this film where you feel like you are involved in the storyline and you can feel the tension that the characters are enduring. The thrill of not knowing where the plot is going to go next is something I have not felt for a long time. I also enjoyed how the two lesbian characters were portrayed. Again, there was a high degree of realism in the way the characters interacted with each other that I think a lot of people will respect as so often a lot of filmmakers get it so so wrong! Well worth a watch!

I wanted to like this, I really did. But try as I may, it failed to grab me. The story doesn't really work at all. There are different threads running that do not tie up at all. Its like a project gone wrong. The 'actors' in this 'movie' are really very bad. It is about as bad as a badly choreographed play in elementary school. Imogen Church is curiously blank and Annette Kellow tries to hard. Alan Ford does a fair job as Hansen but any semblance of acting quality is ruined by Russell Jones whose voice appears to have not broken yet. Or perhaps he has not yet learned how to control it.3/10
