A great film, with a great balance of intrigue and action. Well worth a watch. A heart-pounding thrill ride that grabs you from the first frame and never lets go. The action sequences are masterfully choreographed, blending stunning visuals with intense, edge-of-your-seat moments that keep you hooked. The pacing is relentless, with each scene building on the last, driving the tension to a fever pitch. The cast delivers strong performances, with the lead's charisma and physicality shining through. Combined with a gripping storyline and a pulse-pounding score, this film is a must-watch for any action movie fan. It's pure adrenaline on screen!
I came across this film on Amazon and so glad I did! This British film is brilliant. You will never guess the end, such a good twist. I looked up the Director and he is a well known British actor. What a talent. What a film. Can not recommend enough.
The acting from the 3 leads is incredible. You love them, you hate them, then you love them again. Very clever writing. I like the editing a lot as it never slumps and keeps you on your toes.
Nick Moran from Lock stock was my favourite, but all the cast did a fantastic job. Great mix of drama and British sarcasm. Indie film makers could learn a lot from this film. Ticks all the boxes.
Loved every minute.

Who doesn't like a gritty British crime drama?
Intense drama from Andrew Lee Potts debut Firecracker. Powerful performances and a scene stealing end performance from Katie Sheridan.
Stella cast including Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels Nick Moran and Jason Flemyng.
I could also see this working as a theatre piece with its tense dialogue and close up performances, all taking place within the vicinity of an empty house. Similar to The first 'Saw' movie but with less blood!
Great writing, cinematography and soundtrack and I look forward to seeing what Andrew Lee Potts imagination creates next!

This is not normally my cup of tea, however I had to watch this twice there was so much going on the twists the turns fabulously put together and a must see watch.
My daughter who wants to go into film after her studying, was telling me the techniques used during filming (she can be very annoying especially when your trying to watch something) and I was impressed with the detail that went into filming this.
The character development is complex and keeps you pulled into the movie.
Kate Sheridan plays her Character so well, i can't wait to see her Next Movie.
Andrew Potts, has done very well and I am looking forward to the next one.

OK so it's no Hollywood blockbuster but that's what excellent about it. Gritty and charismatic. Andrew is brilliant and leaves you guessing. Have been a fan since Primeval days which I'm also binge watching on sky right now. The plot is hard and rough and the scenery awesome and the rapport between Jack and Lena is quite dark and sometimes humorous and for Andrews first directing project its throughly engrossing, but then I love indy films esp japanese and french indy film noir. Thoroughly enjoyed, left me on the edge of my seat to the very end, totally recommend. Awesome film thank you all xxx.
