Just got back from watching it and really enjoyed it, and that's coming from someone who intensely disliked Kill List. Great acting, directing, cinematography, and also very funny in places too. Surprised it got away with a 15 rating though considering the violence, i know it was probably the comedy that mitigated it and also that it was fairly brief, but it was pretty gruesome in places (not complaining, just surprised it wasn't an 18).

8/10

Saw this tonight and absolutely loved it. Comedy so black it makes Nighty Night look like Miranda. A very loud laugh from the audience for the line PJ68 quoted!

My review on the film (which I loved);
http://www.youvegotredonyou.com/#!si...s-review/c1tbt

Surprised that with all the advertising and positive reviews, it only seems to have got a limited release. I've recommended it to a lot of friends, but it doesn't seem to be playing their local cinemas .

BTW, I was lucky enough to see it at the Curzon Soho cinema, with a Q&A session with Ben Wheatley and cast afterwards.
Wheatley was (good-naturedly) swearing his head off and refused to answer any questions on "Kill-List". I got the impression that he's a little weary with all the different theories on the story...
Alice Lowe and Steve Oram were brilliant though ...

My favourite line was;

Saw this yesterday, and the great thing is I knew nothing about it other than it was supposed to be good. And it was very good although I don't know what it says about me that
