I couldn't find an existing thread for this British movie so thought that I'd start one...

Saw this up Odeon this evening and thought that it was an entertaining action-thriller with some nice shots of London' ever evolving skyline and good performances from the likes of McAvoy, Strong, Morrisey and Harris. 7/10

Awful plot and full of z-list british actors doing their very worst cheesy hardmen impressions. Once Jason Flemyng appears on screen in any film you know you are in trouble. Even McAvoy, who I do like as an actor and was clearly there to elevate it above straight to dvd status, was pretty poor.
I would say its worth a watch if it comes on TV or Sky.
An average plot, but done in a stylish way, with great action {fight scenes very good}...also...7/10
Loved the stand of with the Mum/Gran in the house.:eek:
I'm glad that someone agrees with me about this movie I really don't understand why Side Effects (which I watched last Wednesday) is getting such glowing reviews when it is just as predictable imo.
Yeah the stand-off was a tense scene with Johnny Harris being particularly menacing, although the slow-mo finale was a bit naff!
