great film, much more believable acting

[Selmer]

Just bought his as a pressie for my brother in-law. I'll have to 'borrow' it to see what the fuss is about. Aaaah...Sienna Miller...that's what the fuss is about.

[lockstock2sb]

Yep - she is a rare treat

Just bought this film from Amazon for £6.77!
Excellent film.

One of the top Brit flicks IMHO. So much better, in every respect, than the much hyped Lock-Stock et al.
For modern British films it runs a close second to Gangster No1, which is shockingly brutal, but brilliant .

Superb ending, isn't it.

I was just into the 'ah, credits coming up, start relaxing and thinking what bottle to open next mode' and then came the ending.

excellent stuff.

One of the best films that I have seen in recent years. The cinematography is amazing, the script is excellent and the acting is superb.

[julianhj]

One of my top ten, possibly top five movies of all time.

As an aside, does anyone know what the background music on the DVD menu screen is? Sort of floaty vocal stuff.

[Killer2005]

For a "cockney ganster film" its absolutely fantastic film

[jvaughan]

Brilliant Film, a good sequal to Lock Stock IMHO ... better than Snatch

[Chim_Knee]

I thought it was a great film. Caught it "by accident" on Sky one night and loved it.

[soir]

Assumed this would be poor - watched it anyway and a great film at that.

Reminded me a little of 'long good friday? & carlito's way'.

I havent seen the film yet but when I was looking for it on Play.com I noticed there is a CD containing all the music. The track you are after might be on there

In the book, rather than driving an RS6 they have a rented Rover 75...

I really enjoyed the film and agree with you, any film that can get close to "The Long Good Friday" (and it does) is a definite winner.

By the way am I the only person that thought Lock Stock was a crock of overhyped St ?

After reading this thread and liking both Lock Stock and Snatch I have just order this off Play.com for £6.99 for the 2 disk edition.

Guy I work with watched it on Sky Box office recently and paid £3.75 to watch this so I feel justified in spending an extra couple of squid buying it with the extras even though I have never seen it.
