I don't regret watching it but I would've been fine not watching it.

Best way I can describe it is..it's a short story based on a real event. Nothing happens. The acting was good idk what the others are talking about. It's going to be easy to forget..but I mean a good peek inside a true mobster that escaped prison. So if your a gangster/mob buff I'm sure you'd appreciate it.

Great film

IMDB ratings are often totally out of kilter. This is a good film. The actor playing Frank gets the character's mood of menace, despair and manic japes just right. The sense of claustrophobia and tension is palpable. All the attention is on the three characters in the hideout flat Frank his minder John and later Lisa the woman hired to calm Mitchell down. The dynamic between the three characters is well written. It is interesting that the Krays are only peripheral and only appear on the phone giving orders.

Ignore the bad reviews and give this a chance

The Mad Axeman

After watching this film I logged on to Imdb to look at the reviews. I was quite surprised by all the negative reviews. It was no Oscar winner I would agree but not a bad watch on the whole. It tells the true story of Frank Mitchell a career criminal hard man who escapes from prison and holds up in a safe house provided by the notorious Kray twins. I thought the acting by the three main characters was not as as bad as others had stated, and I quite enjoyed it.

Martin Freeman played the role of Frank's minder John in the original production, before he found wider fame in television and film roles.
