The Krays: Dead Man Walking

From the first scene you can see they made a terrible choice in casting the krays and and Frank the clothing the whole thing in whole and sad to think if this is the only reg Travis film any one has scene as he is actually not a bad actor whole thing was a shambles

This is obviously a "Someone made a film about the Krays last year: we should get in on that audience before they get bored with it" type of effort. How fortunate that movies aren't shot on celluloid anymore, for this would have been a criminal waste of material. I only watched it because I was intrigued to see if Leslie Grantham (remember him?) could play a police officer even as well as a piece of driftwood could. Sadly, I was disappointed, much to the shame of Mr Grantham who I believe didn't even live to see it released! If only they had at least bothered to cast a pair of twins as a pair of twins, it might have helped, instead of us having to watch two "hoodahells" constantly having to refer to each other by character names so that we could tell who they were meant to be.

Peter Oxley has posted here. He is executive producer of this utterly dire movie and thus hardly impartial. It is also unethical and bad form to review and grade your own film. This space is for ordinary members of the public to express their opinions, not for producers to push their tawdry wares. It is dishonest of Oxley not to declare his vested interest.

Who done the casting for The Krays? I'm sure they couldn't be any further from the actual Krays. Is it possible they got the casting requirements mixed up with the Stan & Oile movie? They looked more like Laurel and Hardy, rather than the Kray twins.

I normally have a look at the ratings and then give a movie a look to make my own mind up. Looking here, i thought surely it can't be that bad? It can! Even worse than bad. I actually feel guilty for giving it 1/10.

I gave this movie 32 minutes of my life that i could have used doing more constructive things, like taking a nap for example. There is so much wrong with this movie and I'm not going to waste any more time by going into detail. A pathetic waste of money and an embarrassment for the people involved.

Avoid at all costs.

An awful film about two of Londons biggest gangsters, portrayed by two actors with clearly no attempt to find lookalikes and one of them has a London accent that constantly slips back into a country Plymouth accent. What really makes me laugh, and the film industry needs to clamp down on this, is using a plastic actress such as Nerissa whose face is so pumped full of botox, it don't move, in a film supposedly from the 60's. Two stars for Linda Lusardi 😊
