The second worst Britsh movie I have ever seen - which is going some as the modern Brit movie crowd only deal in cliché when it comes to the flicks. You even get a bunch of smug posh people lurching round big old houses or a gang of awful 'villains' with cameos from plastic gangsters and soccer players.
For some reason most Brit movies feel like they have been made up by a bunch of self satisfied tits talking utter bs in some rich fool's over sized kitchen after a night out drinking Vodka Gimlets in Soho and snorting poorly washed cocaine.
Oh...wait a minute.
Propa Norty Geezahs. -10.

Being a fan of British film making and gangster related films I looked forward to watching. You would have more fun watching paint dry in my opinion. The best part for me was when I turned it off! What the hell were they thinking having Tulisa from N Dubz appear!? I would like to know if anyone actually enjoyed watching and if the cast were that desperate for money that they threw their self respect and reputations away to be a part of it! I would have liked to rate this film a -10 but the option isn't there. Very disappointing considering some of the actors involved. A few actors played their parts well but on the whole the plot, direction and awful humor made me loose interest in the first 10 minutes. Big fat gypsy gangster? More like Big Fat load of rubbish.
If you're a fan of Bulla it's a must see.Great performance by Ricky Grover.We need Bulla back on the box.Thoroughly enjoyed it. I think that it showed that Bulla has a lot more depth than you could ever get across on the shorts that he made his trademark on the 11 0'Clock show. One of the funniest parts of the film for me personally was the part where the old boxing manager is bemoaning the advent of cage fighting and Bulla responds to descriptions of cage fighting incidents of eye gauging and biting with "but that's a beautiful thing.I can't see anything wrong with that.A sport has to evolve. I also laughed out loud when Bulla stabs the reporter in the arm with an infected needle to make sure he's listening. I have seen a couple of bad reviews but I think it's from people who don't appreciate alternative comedy and don't like to think to deeply or listen too closely in order to take in irony. For me it was a long awaited must see and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I gave up on this after half an hour, no jokes at all, a complete waste of time. A bit like watching some mates doing a home video version of Eastenders only worse. I can't believe anyone would release this. Lots of 10/10 reviews here that must be fake. Ricky Grover cannot act to save his life. This film is so bad I'm compelled to warn people to avoid it. Big Fat piece of turd would be a better title. It stinks. Watch the fast show mock up cockney barrel of monkeys if you want some cockney gangster comedy. Why do you have to write 10 lines to review this when one word will do fine. For gods sake just let me submit the bloody review.
I can't really fully express just how bad this movie is! What were they thinking of when they made it? It was a sad day for British comedy when this pile was released. There is no real thread to the storyline, other than it follows a random pattern of events and is presented in a stereotype, mocumentary fashion that has really been done to death, and to greater effect.
Many of the subject themes are not only offencive, and I don't mean offencive in a shock comedy 'ok it's offencive but it's funny' way...I mean just plain offencive!
Sorry to be negative, but there really is not one good thing I can think of to say about this film......apart from that it does eventually end.
