Honestly quite decent

Having picked the DVD up in Poundland, I had pretty low expectations for a film that described itself as "Goodfellas meets Lock Stock", the film is nothing like those two films, and that's a good thing.

The film is fairly well made despite its obviously low budget. Being under 65 minutes, the film is fairly well paced and I was never bored while watching it.

Performances were decent and fairly believable. The characters had some depth but could have been fleshed out more.

Visually the film looks decent. Shot in black and white, the film doesn't have that obvious digital look and awful looking colour seen in many other low budget films, I think being in black and white helped that.

Story wise it's fine for something that's just over an hour long but would have been thin if it was any longer.

Overall it's a decent little film that deserves more recognition than it's currently getting.
