The runner stumbles. Every one can make mistakes in life. Even then you have the options to play straight or crooked. The morality issue is well evaluated as the film progresses and that is what keeps you enthralled, not the direction, not the acting...If there is a great contribution to the film it lies in the screenplay, which is definitely interesting. It is a good family film--with an interesting look at husband and wife relationships seesawing through a stable marriage.

Richie Liddle (Ross Kemp) is a put upon security guard. Low wages, large family and his elder daughter needs money for an operation for a facial disfigurement.

His boss Ken who runs the security firm is unwilling to loan money.

One night the place that Richie is guarding by two armed robbers. He is shot in the leg and the robber tries to blast him to death. Only the gun jams.

They escape without much loot as Richie managed to lock the money in the safe. One bag was left behind unnoticed. Richie decides to help himself to it and hides the money.

Now feted as a hero by the press and public. His daughter gets an operation, a newspaper gives him a large cheque. Richie is overcome with guilt.

The two robbers are after him when they realise a large sum of money is missing. So does the detective investigating, he thinks Richie's story does not add up.

The story came across as half baked. I guess Richie is suffering from PTSD due to his injuries and trauma. He also acted impulsively by taking the money and then regretted it.

The rest of it is him moping about. Turning down opportunities to make money for his family. In doing so he very much advertises his guilt.

An uneven morality tale that does not quiet work.
