The Krays: Dead Man Walking

From the first scene you can see they made a terrible choice in casting the krays and and Frank the clothing the whole thing in whole and sad to think if this is the only reg Travis film any one has scene as he is actually not a bad actor whole thing was a shambles

I do not write reviews ever and I do mean ever but by oh Christ was this one of the worst films I have EVER seen. 79 minutes of my life I will never ever get back

Peter Oxley has posted here. He is executive producer of this utterly dire movie and thus hardly impartial. It is also unethical and bad form to review and grade your own film. This space is for ordinary members of the public to express their opinions, not for producers to push their tawdry wares. It is dishonest of Oxley not to declare his vested interest.

The only reason to even attempt to 'review' this rubbish is to try and understand how so many adults involved in the making of this could possibly think that it was in any way a portrayal of the Krays or London's underground or London in the 1960's in anyway shape or form. From the absurdly fake accents.. "We are Old School!' to the amateurish attempt at Costume.... makes this truly one of the worse Movies I have ever tried to watch. With so many documented photographs of Ronnie and Reg, wouldn't you even begin to cast someone with the slightest resemblance to the twins? I challenge anyone to find a photo of Reg with a 5o'Clock shadow. Lord Boothby could have been played by Boris or Benny Hill as opposed to a skinny Etonian and without doubt Lesley (Dirty Den) Grantham must be happy from above that this was his last film. Why? Why? Why? If Ronnie and Reg were still with us, I'm sure that these 'filmmakers' would have been paid a visit! Dreadful.

I am not sure which is worse: the casting, the acting or the dialogue. Being historically incorrect seems inconsequential given that none of it is believably acted even if it were a true representation of the facts.An appalling and badly made film. A total waste of time.
