The Intent

Sat home innit. Board, heard of this title through a homie. WHAT!!! This was supposed to be a gritty film not a playschool/jackanory title. Seriously..Whoever gave it some high ratings must either be deluded or high on calpol. I agree with the other reviews. Only waste your time if you want to loose an hour or so of your life. I turned it off after around 54 mins. That was 53 mins too long.Some of the tunes were OK. The wardrobe was OK in places.Make up well they did a good job on the boys. The idea was clique been there, done it and I have the t-shirt. The camera work and pull were decent enough as was the Directing but it was wasted on the story or lack of and as I say the wooden acting the director can only do SO much. You can lead a horse to water...

Good intentions do not always make a good movie. The action part of the movie does sort of work. They also know how to cut/edit effectively. But one of the major issues the movies has is its characters/actors. While I don't want to be to quick to judge the actors based on one performance, it is safe to say that the script does not give them anything or rather really much to play with and develop a character.

It feels like they knew what they wanted to do and the characters do feel "real", but they are not accessible to the viewer. So it is a shame and almost a waste. The movie might have had more potential if it took more notes from the movies it does try to copy.

Well as a movie goer and watching films often on netflix, Amazon & Blinkbox i watch films carefully before rating them but i can say this film is way over rated (maybe due to the cast) it is a total waste of time and money,

The film storyline is terrible it seems they have just copied fast furious 1 storyline where undercover police officer becomes apart of a heist gang and eventually the gang becomes aware of his identity, its a total mess, the story has no excitement to it and it seems like a bunch of uni students decided to make this film! i was expecting a real raw hard hitting drama but all fell apart when the film opens up with really bad narration! and scene too scene is just a total mess, the characters are just so boring you don't feel for anyone you don't care if they live or die, i was just like when will this end!!!

The acting was disgusting i cannot even remember the name of the characters!! they were really unrealistic names, i remember watching the lead actor a few years ago in another film which his acting was decent but not seen him since an this just shows why he hasn't done nothing in years! I also remember watching top boy and i can say the actor in that was really good but here his OK nothing special the same role given gang member, thug, drugs etc cant see these doing anything different with their acting careers

The Direction & Writing was terrible, i heard the producers & Directors had acted also in this! another desperate attempt of filmmakers wanting fame thirst.....

I can say the violence was decent

The production value seems low, locations settings were really low grade especially when characters are stealing 100k from crappy locations....

And exploiting women as usual only used as sex objects

I don't want to waste my time with this review any longer.... if you have allot of spare time on your hands then id still say avoid this film, you will be disappointed!!!!

The filmmakers and its crew at least have a base from which to start which isn't bad considering. Location fine, casting okay and story a bit too simple, but easy enough to execute. Flaws are no believable characters or characterization, so no real reason to love, loathe or like the TIC crew, the Police or the 'other lot'. Even the exceptionally snarling lead character wasn't NASTY enough, and no, "I don't know who the *#@$ he is" either. Script needed a shed-load of revising, as not even the POLICE in FIREMAN SAM, EASTENDERS or TELLY TUBBIES talk, behave or are briefed like that. "Morning officers..." err no! Could've and should've been tighter...but hopefully the mob behind this one will progress on to bigger and brighter things.

3/10 NICE EFFORT

Everything is bad. Throw the whole movie away.....
