Silent Night

A perfect example of a classic British Gangster Film. It is a dark and gritty film which highlights many issues faced in today's society. The continuously twisting plot is enhanced by amazing acting, particularly by the main actor - Bradley Taylor, leaving you glued to the screen. It is a must watch.

I cannot believe some of the poor reviews solely because it wasn't a Christmas film!! This film was grim but realistic, superbly acted with a great story, I think if you're not British then you won't get it. Highly reccomended.

I actually enjoyed this movie . Despite some reviews Ive read .. The gloomy look was captured very well And the decision the main character had to make about his life was interesting I heard it was a first for the director so well done.. I personally would not have had the policeman scene in it .as I felt it really brought everything to an end ..we there was still a bit to go... The music I have to say blow me away ...I've tired to find who the composer was Really grabed my attention ..it's the music were he s walnut up the steps to his friends apartment ..best piece of music I e heard in a long time ..also the acting was very strong from caddydown to the side kick uncle Tom ... I will be recommending to all my friends Because it's nice just to watch a good plain old English crime thriller ..

Pretty easy to watch, can't fault the script / acting / jokes, was all pretty good and the movie goes along nicely.

The one thing that i found extremely annoying is the main 'twist', it's too obvious and been done thousands of times before i can't believe people can still be surprised by it.

Aside from that the story takes different twists and turns and keeps you watching till the end as the main character goes through a seemingly unwinnable situation.

Nothing great but def worth a watch as a bit of a festive comedic ganster movie. Although i think alot of the movie was obviously filmed away from christmas so the outside shots aren't very festive.. but the christmas dinner at the end is very good.

Because this movie has plenty of gunfire and violence, surely enough for most fans of the crime thriller genre. The cast all make their characters believable and interesting, even those with small roles like the cop. The dialogue has some clever bits, and Silent Night's director, Will Thorne, did a fine job dealing with all the challenges of making a by no means simple gangland revenge story entertaining. If this comes out as a DVD with a director's cut, it could well be worth buying just to see how movies are made in gritty urban settings.

What really sets Silent Night apart, however, is a twist in the plot. Can't say much about that without taking this review into spoiler territory, but the twist certainly puts Mark in a whole different light. Not necessarily a better light, however.
