Picked this up on DVD cheaply as a new release so wasn't expecting much, maybe a low grade gangster flick, but it is a well put together and thought out film, with good performances and some very clever plotting.
Not really a gangster film in the true sense of the genre, excellent twist and good idea from Glen Murphy.
Winstone is at his snarling malevolent best, obviously doing friend Murphy a favour in appearing but gives a strong performance as an unlikeable bully.
Well worth a watch, one of the best thought out and most original films I've seen in a while
