Format:VHS Tape
A small time London crime gang is assembled to pull off a big time job. In short, after excellent planning and execution of the operation, the monetry gains from the robbery fell well short of the expectations. After stashing their gains , the gang go about their normal business, unfortunately someone had other ideas as to the ownership of the money haul. In a series of twists and amongst some violent action the gang through a process of elimination seek out the culprate. The movie contrasts between the gentleness of love within a family versus the violence that people are prepared to inflict to protect and care for the family.

Never mind all your indecipherable cockney banter, cheeky-chirpy-happy-go-lucky gangsters and real life criminals making special appearances, this is how to make a British crime thriller. The uncovering of the culprit was a real surprise and the final act in the motorway service station was pure heartfelt acting at it's best. Even the last few minutes with the Police Jeep in the car-park will keep you on the edge of your seat. The action sequences of the film are fast-paced and set to a soundtrack of bassline driven dance tunes by the likes of Fluke et al, yet the film manages to change gear perfectly for the more emotional scenes. All in all, one of the best British films of the 90's. It's an abomination that this hasn't seen a DVD release yet.

A cast packed with big stars expecting a timeless classic, unfortunately ended up with a very dated film. Ray Winstone not at his best.

Face from Amazon
The film turned up bang on time and it is a seriously underated British gangster film. Just brilliant

Face-tastic!
If you like Winston and Carlyle, you'll love this. Typical "smack in the face" action. Raymondo is a little more reserved in this than usual, but still puts in a good performance. Read more

great movie
This was a brilliant movie with a great ending that I never saw coming. I would recommend this gritty thriller if you like a twist at the end!!
