May I Kill U?

I found this film to be quite a surprise in that I found it somewhat hard to identify the genre: I concluded that this was mainly due to it following a number of strands that combined comedy, horror and notion of drama that together provided a caricature of London's finest that may shock but will also certainly attract. It was a most original concept that was well written, well directed and well made. The lead character's strange tastes were matched by the strange relationship he 'enjoyed' with his with his mother. His notion of service in which he pursues his own agenda was quite hilarious. Suffice to say this appeared to be driven by a rather overwhelming personality disorder that verged on the psychotic. It was certainly off-beat but also highly entertaining, sometimes shocking and came with the raw-edge grittiness that British films often excel at. In fact it is fair to say that this is an example of Indie Cinema at its best and I would certainly recommend it.

Really enjoyed the style and quirkiness. Keep up the good work.....

Very often with these kind of films, you get a great concept with a not so great execution, but this is an exception.

The use of what I imagined to be footage from the 2011 London riots was cleverly interwoven into the film to portray a London of petty crooks and bored coppers. The interesting twist by use of the flipped roles of 'Baz' the bicycle cop and a tattooed and lazily-bearded offender, in what seems to be an interview room, provides a dramatic and humorous opening as the events that led up to the moment unwind before us.

With his poisonous, ciggy-puffing mother judging his every move and decision, we have the fascinating contrast of Baz' comic work life, in which I felt very comfortable viewing, and his home, which was cleverly filmed to highlight Baz' discomfort and feeling of sickness at his mother's presence and attitude, which resounds in the audience.

With appropriate twists and turns throughout, this is one of those films that guarantees a laugh and an interesting pry into the lives of those who seem to be totally normal people.

Comes hitting with the strength of a cult classic, and hopefully to stay. This witty English comedy has collected laughter among the audiences and reluctance among the critics. Extremely contemporary, this film may fail to pass the test of time, but for the time that has been running has delighted viewers with his dark humour and satirical style that has been characteristic of decades of English storytelling.

This eccentric mesh, all topped with the brilliant performance of Kevin Bishop, foresees the actor's career break toward comedy, proving success in both sides of the lake after his role in Super Fun Night.

However, the film doesn't seem to have fulfilled the American critic scene's expectations. From my point of view, with punch lines like 'Does anyone else here speak English and have been raped?', the scene can be presented a bit raw to swallow for American audiences. Nevertheless, is the incongruence and boldness of these dialogues what makes the characters in this film crazy and unique, and builds the dark charm of British comedy.

Definitely a must see this summer.

I'd like to be able to say something bad about this movie, but I can't. I tried hard to find something about it that irked me, something that bothered me about the acting or the direction, but I cannot think of one thing. In fact, I watched it a second time, just before writing this to see if there was anything that I didn't like. Alas, I could not.

A brilliant set up, rather tenuous contributor to the cause of the 'issue' but even that was well thought out. It could have been one of those robocop plot lines where a catastrophic incident plays into the derived condition, but even that left me thinking; it could be that simple.

The best part of this movie is the straight faced Kevin Bishop really making you feel you can relate to his initial frustrations. His personal life overlaps with his professional life and sets him spiraling into the dark world that is the home of the vigilante.

Of all the movies that I should have seen (or been aware of) at the time of release, this is currently top. As I said before, I can't fault the movie but I would fault the lack of marketing or buzz about it. It is one of those movies that should have been in the limelight immediately it was released but if it was, I certainly didn't hear about it.

Great movie, not recommended for anyone who doesn't like a sinister black thriller/comedy that leaves you with a grin and a "how could you follow that" impression.
