5.0 out of 5 stars surprisingly good, 31 Oct 2001
By heathereholiday@aol.com (Southport, England) - See all my reviews
i sat down to watch this film expecting to be disgusted and bored after all the cutting reviews i have read on it. but it blew me away. oldman and webb are incredibly convincing and the script and plotlines smoothly pan out to reveal a surprisingly tender love beneath the squalor and the drugs. i recommend that you watch the film with an open mind and decide for yourselves whether they were wasters as some people have described them or just terribly lonely and misguided people...

4.0 out of 5 stars punk romeo and juliet, 31 Jan 2004
even if you werent a fan of the Sex Pistols then this would still make you laugh, cry, think, and see what actually happened in the punk era before we had pop idol. Gary Oldman plays a great Sid, and Chloe Web a nauseating Nancy! Also tells the story of the bands demise, and it gets quite dark near the end when the troubled lovers are in America. You will learn something from this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 20 Dec 2003
Gary Oldmen's performance as Sid Vicious is just amazing in this film. Anyone who loves film, real music and the pistols have to see this!
