Two Graves

Enjoyable British flick with some gritty acting which showed some really unpleasant characters. Plot was dark with some twists dragging you through the dirt they had found themselves in. Cathy Tyson and Katie Jarvis worked well together making the film rumble to a crunching ending 8/10

A very predictable and dull movie where every character is very unlikable, shallow and generally idiotic. Accordingly I had no interest in the well-being of any of them and watched the story plod through to its dreary end. Dozens of silly old cliches - including the ancient one where two characters grapple - with one of them holding a gun, it "somehow" gets fired, they freeze instantly (like inexperienced actors and directors believe gunshot victims always do) and we wait to see which of them has been shot. The whole story is this unimaginative and unrealistic.And identically, ANYONE who gets shot in the this trashy movie freezes in shocked silence.

The frequent, gratuitous, deep bass sounds inserted for atmosphere are ridiculously amateurish.

I regret wasting my time on this move, giving it a rating of 2, which means I watched it to the end and despised it. (1 is reserved for garbage that I stop watching before it ends).

I was reluctant to watch this film, having read negative reviews, however without having any better alternatives and, being somewhat intrigued by the moral lesson implied by the title, I thought I'd give it a chance.

The film is not what it first appears to be, and I found myself initially sympathising with characters whom I later found appalling, and vice versa.

There's something not quite right with this film; I can't quite put my finger on what it is, the lack of continuity, the 'Instagram' filter that passes for colour grading and one assumes has been added in an attempt to add atmosphere, the thoroughly dislikeable characters, the poor script, or the even poorer storyline.

Whatever it is, I can only assume David Hayman and Cathy Tyson both had big credit card bills due, because I can't think of another single reason either would have sullied their good name with this drivel.

Seriously, don't waste your time.

Well, from past experience, I don't usually watch British films, especially if the accents are Cockney! I've seen a few and they were really, really crap with sub-standard acting. In fact, I was going to give it a really bad review without having watched it (I know that's naughty) but I thought, "Nope, I'm going to give this film a try!"... So I did, and I was surprised at how good it was. The acting was good, the filming was excellent, the plot was very interesting, the script was good, the whole setting of the film was good. It's not an action-packed film but I can honestly say that it was, for me, a gripping film. There were a few gory bits as well... I'm one of those macho guys who hates injections with thick needles!!! I would recommend this film to anyone who likes the true gangland type films and the thug who thinks he's a hero... My only criticism was the end - I think it could have ended another way, but good nevertheless...
