    Anti-Hamilton. Bad acting

    This is such a laughable facsimile of what people think Hamilton is. This Ain't Hollywood, Sherman Ave N and James St N do not a gritty environ make. The plot is ok, the acting was forced and it wasn't even clear whether they were supposed to be in Hamilton or Vancouver. Gave up 40min in. Waste of time.

    Indie Crime Thriller With A Musical Twist

    The brilliantly talented, real life twin brothers who play the lead characters are the life and soul of this entertaining, sporadically funny crime thriller. The music they play throughout really supports the story and informs you about their characters too. There are some violent moments but the film is mostly a light-hearted indie crime caper movie. Loads of fun.

    A fun thriller

    It may not blow your mind with it's story, but still a fun thriller I would recommend.

    Lock Stock meets The Commitments

    Stunning soundtrack with insanely talented lead cast. Besides the wonderful cellists/lead actors, the bad ass Jamaican bingo granny and her murderous pals totally stole the show! A few slightly awkward early scenes were completely outweighed by the funny plot, clever editing, spirited writing and directing and galloping soundtrack that really brought it all together. Watch this film.

    Snatch + Whiplash + Risky Business

    A fun mash up; difficult to label. Great soundtrack, solid writing, great pacing, extremely entertaining! Totally worth the time. A very impressive film.
