Leofwine_draca DANGEROUS MIND OF A HOOLIGAN is another nonsense production and a slice of low-rent British crime. It feels more like a copy of RESERVOIR DOGS, with a bunch of pond-dwelling criminals falling out after a heist, than anything else, and it certainly has nothing to do with hooliganism. I tend to find that the presence of Simon Phillips in a film is a guarantee of ineptitude and so it proves here. This is packed with cheap camerawork, derivative scenarios, low rent action, and a script that replaces wit with incessant profanity. It's dumb and predictable, cheap and nasty, and entirely without merit.
GUENOT PHILIPPE This is obviously evident, or evidently obvious that this crap from UK is a pure example of the new kind of British crime film industry and highly inspired from the early Quentin Tarantino's features. The new wave of the crime films that we find by batches since two decades now. Movies each one of them worst than the other, a sort of rivalry in crap, garbage race. The worst is not the lack of budget but the pretentious style, with complex stories used as decoys for the audience to forget the total dullness of those forgettable features. You may also find some HEAT inspiration too, especially during the heist sequence. I don't think that any one could be able to summarize correctly this non sense tale, this absurd corny film. This movie is although not the bottom of the garbage can. I have seen far far worse than this one. This kind of stuff could never be released in France, even straight to DVD releases. No way at all, no chance. Funny that the marksman character looks like Quentin Tarantino. Ha ha ha...
A Hillier There were certain points when i quite liked this, for me , the first 30 Min's but the incredibly poor decision to introduce a psychotic/maverick pursuer who we were supposed to believe was associated with the Police destroyed all semblance of realism. It was a shame as i was drawn to finding out what would happen until the end even though i ended up fast forwarding through the vignettes to give characters more depth i suppose but actually just slowed down the pace of the film. Ending up doing my own editing which is not a good sign. What really annoyed me was the ending as hate films that just bottle out on happy/sad ending. Felt the acting in the main was OK but as said previously the most charismatic character to go early was a strange decision.Female character was criminally under developed. Shame.
grandmastersik Sigh, another low budget British gangster flick... if there were a handful of good ones, I'd have been more keen when sitting down, but at least I didn't have high hopes to be dashed.And it's for the best, because the direction was confused, as - lacking a decent script and/or interesting characters - we got some arty shots mixed in with the some others used over and over, and cheap locations that really failed to make the actual bank job the film's all about, believable.For some reason, a security guard has a gun (I don't know what banks the producers visit in England, if this seemed realistic) and the back-stories of each character were badly put together and not even remotely engaging. In fact, I'd say that the best character died first (well, okay, second), and where I wrote above that the acting was good, I was obviously neglecting the really CRAP cop who hunts the group of robbers down.With 1,000s of films on Sky where this is presently playing, you didn't have any reason to watch this anyway, so just flick over to something else.
