Product Description

A&R man Steven Stelfox (Nicholas Hoult, Mad Max: Fury Road) is slashing and burning his way through the music business, a world where ‘no one knows anything’ and where careers are made and broken by chance and the fickle tastes of the general public. Fuelled by greed, ambition and inhuman quantities of drugs, Stelfox lives the dream, as he searches for his next hit record. But as the hits dry up and the industry begins to change, Stelfox takes the concept of “killer tunes” to a murderous new level in a desperate attempt to salvage his career. Based on John Niven’s best-selling novel, Kill Your Friends is a dark, satirical and hysterically funny evisceration of the Nineties music business.

4.0 out of 5 starsNow That's What I Call Hits of the late nineties........
By Corey Newcombe on 30 Mar. 2016
Format: Blu-ray
A word of warning, if you don't find the thought of Nicholas Hoult being smug for the entire film, breaking the fourth wall with his damning social commentary, doing that thing where we see him saying something to somebody, and then realising that it's what he's thinking, and using the screen as his own catwalk, steer clear.

He is Executive producer after all.

As soon as the first song from the era played, I was sold right until the end. I was twenty when this film was set, and Britpop was everywhere. The late nineties had a small boom of yuppiedom about it, and although the people in this film are archetype dislikable snakes, it only makes it easier for us to root for the bad guy.

The use of the music is predictable, but still a lot of fun. If you are a fan of The Prodigy, when the film plays 'Smack My Ahem Up', you know exactly what point of the song Steven is going to attack his victim.

Like the people portrayed in the film, it is a very shallow affair, and the narrative just leads us to the path of Stevens next victim, and from the upstart, you know will get unjust desserts, because he looks at them a little bonkers.

When watching it, one cannot help but reference American Psycho, a far more superior film and Book about consumerism.

I wouldn't have been one bit surprised if this was called British psycho, it may have made a bit more money, and I guarantee if this were made fifteen years ago, when it would have been more appropriate, it would have starred Bale.

But like I've said, if were certain demographic in 1997, there is a lot to appreciate here.

Not a great film, but hugely nostalgic for some.

And it features a great big middle finger to all those parasitic processed pop groups that poison our airwaves.

4.0 out of 5 starsNot a Brit American Psycho but I really enjoyed it anyway
By Tommy Dooley TOP 50 REVIEWER on 6 April 2016
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
Nicholas Hoult of ‘Skins’ fame plays Steven Stelfox who is a twenty something ‘A and R’ man for a London based purveyor of awful music. He is the sort of person the eighties generation of greed produced. He has no soul and is only in it for the money. He knows it is a cut throat business and so decides to take that advice quite literally by doing just that.

Now this is one of those films that has people either raving or seething and I think comparisons to ‘American Psycho’ have not aided this in gaining the audience it needs. It is a black comedy but the comedy is fairly well rationed out and if you find bad things happening to be about as funny as a sack of dead babies then you will not like this.

The acting is as expected with no stand out performances and no one letting the side down either. James Corden is in it for a while and does his trademark getting his kit off – which is more worn out in terms of mirth than a ‘Primark’ welcome mat during sale season. Craig Roberts plays an awkward record co ‘gofor’ and is ok in that too. Hoult is believable and very unlikeable and I think that is the total point. The record industry is full of the sort or folk that you really do not want to be your best buds – even on a multi media social network. It is cut throat but using the vehicle of humour is a very good way to send it up and so I am in between the ravers and the seethers but actually appreciated this film – the good parts outweigh the lesser ones.

2.0 out of 5 starsRead the book 10x better than this drivel
By Simon P on 5 April 2016
Format: Amazon Video Verified Purchase
A fantastic book that once again doesn't translate very well on screen I'm afraid. The film is devoid of the dark laugh out humour of the book and all in all a bit of a disappointment.

4.0 out of 5 starsGood adaptation with strong lead performances
By Isabella Marlowe on 5 April 2016
Format: Amazon Video Verified Purchase
Decent adaptation of a great book, with a barnstorming performance by Nicholas Hoult. A film full of nostalgia for a once 90s indie teen like myself.
