It's SO bad on every level. I can't believe I watched this rubbish. The main actress has a baby voice which was excruciating. Plus a child like overall demeanour about her. Also was an unconvincing dancer or choreographer, sorry.

Acting is atrocious. Lots of cringe and cheese including the old hat of reading things and talking/thinking out loud.

So so bad.

(I gave 1 star but you have to click the star part, there should be a zero star option).

The makers nailed it. This film depicted the punters in Kebab Shops & the like & street drunk night scenes so accurately. I wouldn't be surprised if they used real footage and not actual extras of the night street scenes.

I thought Ziad Abaza was brilliant who plays Salah the owner of the shop. You can't help but root for his character.

(On a side note, I always think what a nightmare it must be for business owners/staff & Law Enforcement who deal with these people).

The reviews are quite spot on here. It 'is' quite dire but it is also quite funny too. The acting is unfortunate. Really bad mostly. I'd say the only redeeming factor is the scenery & music. It's not bad. It does have a electronic 80s vibe, as someone mentioned in the reviews- Giorgio Moroder/John Carpenter, it does! I thought of Georgio Moroder, more basic version. I managed to watch it all the way through somehow because Gerald is quite likable & just to know what happens in the end.
