      A different kind of vigilante

      Baz is a cycle cop. As riots break out in London suburbs, a freak accident causes him an head injury that changes him from an everyday police officer into a psychopath vigilante, offering serious or petty criminals alike a choice, arrest or death. Baz sees this campaign as 'lawful killing' in a justice campaign to save London. Criminals are usually too confused or drunk to argue when they are (politely) asked "May I kill you?". All these interactions are recorded by Baz using his helmet-camera and posted anonymously on-line, quickly transforming the vigilante in the newest Londoner justice crusader.

      Quirky indie films about justince and the meaning of it, this is an original British black comedy with unespected twist and turns. Despite not recommended for everybody, this flick will give enjoyment to viewers looking for something different.

      May I Kill U? is an exceptionally clever movie

      I really enjoyed the preview of "May I Kill U?", written and directed by Stuart Urban. A highly original, modern, and very funny, black comedy; it had a packed-out theatre at the NFT laughing guiltily throughout. No pretentious or linear storyline here: it's a complex plot, delivered in sequential layers and exquisitely packaged in a most satisfying way. "May I Kill U?" has clearly been written and directed to entertain and has fun with some classic lines used to sophisticated effect. The character portrayals, enhanced by the use of careful understatement, are both hard to anticipate and deeply thought-provoking. And I loved, loved but I mean really loved the ending.

      What a surprise!

      I loved this funny movie with a nice looking London copper who got up to all sorts. Really funny and original. Nice to see British movies still getting made like this. This is one of those films that you have to keep to watch again. It is nice to have a laugh and this was a film that did that for us. A bit close to the knuckle at times but is a way that British films are. A bit like seaside postcards - they have a way of poking fun at the establishment and being liked for doing it. So to tie this up it was great to watch. If you want entertainment then this should do you. His private life was weird. Hilarious though. Well made, well acted, well directed. I'm looking forward to more coming out like this.

      Comes hitting with the strength of a cult classic

      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.
