    Not worth a congolese franc!

    I find 95% of British movies great and , to be honest, am probably rather biased, as I tend to dislike typical Hollywood movies, save a few. Even the British movies a lot of people do not like, I tend to. This is the reason I decided to watch the film, after reading the negative reviews on IMDb. A decision I regret. A single penny, cent, yuan or congolese franc spent on this movie is one utterly wasted. It is simply an abomination.

    Firstly it is just odd, very odd. The timing in every scene is completely off, the dialogue ridiculous and the acting appalling. At one point I genuinely suspected it was a joke and they were attempting some kind of humour by acting as poorly as possible. In fact, perhaps they were. It is the only explanation I can come to.

    The film is also accompanied by unnecessary sound effects. The front door to a house closing or opening has the sound effect of a creaking barn door and the sound of footsteps on normal floors replaced by hollow sounding steps. This is all the way through and the effects simply do not match the sound they are replacing would make. This has to be done on purpose, no-one could purposely make such glaring errors. The reason for this is perplexing. Maybe they were trying to be clever or 'arty'. If so, it was a huge failure on both counts.

    It seems to have both very bad and very good reviews on IMDb. Like other commentators I can only assume the good reviews were left by people with a vested interest. I'd rather read war and peace backwards in Finnish than complete watching this film.

    I'd rather have a bowl of Museli!!!

    Oh my good god! This has to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen! Does IMDb allow makers and 'actors' to comment on their own productions in here? because anyone who rates this over one star (zero would be preferable) must be either of those.

    The acting is diabolical, the sound is dubbed on the movie post filming and the 'storyline' a joke - the whole thing came across as a school project gone bad.

    If I hadn't lost the will to live, I'd write about the plot and characters, but in fairness, it'd be a waste of time - AVOID THIS UTTER TURKEY - keep your rotten tomatoes to throw at something deserving of them!

    Dross! Complete and utter dross!!!

    After writing this review, I'm going to get a chisel and hammer and see if I can dig this offencive mess out of my brain! Definitely the worst movie ever made! I know people say that all the time about films they've disliked but trust me, this IS the worst movie ever made. Atrocious - heavily wooden acting, banal dialogue (like a 12 year old trying to write a gangster story) and edited at times like the editor had suddenly zoned out on cannabis! BUT taking the biscuit is the diabolical sound editing, in particular the scandalous post-sync dubbing of the entire dialogue heard in the film. Absolutely laughable Production values.

    Manish Patel needs to stop film making altogether before he causes somebody to take their own life after watching one of his hideous creations!!!

    Sounds cool but don't bother......

    I am not usually a hater of "non-Hollywood" or "B" movies but this was TERRIBLE. I was so convinced that the movie would get better that I watched it all the way through and in hindsight I don't know how or why I didn't turn it off. Just an all around waste of film and money which leaves the viewer wanting to take the time back they spent watching it. Bad acting, terrible and plain stupid all together story-line, and an insult to "Scarface", "Pulp Fiction", and the gangster- movie genre in general. I did however reward one {mandatory} point for cinematography because, even though it was very hard to enjoy, there were some decent shots in the movie that could have been much more realized in a different movie all-together! I am sorry to anyone {like me} who has already wasted time on this movie because it sounded cool and to those of you who are considering watching; My advice to you: DON"T!

    Total Rubbish

    Just watched this film, for free, thank God. What a load of predictable and stupid rubbish.

    The script, storyline and acting are truly awful. What makes it even harder to watch is ALL the sound effects and dialogue appear to have been over dubbed onto the film, so any acting that was done is lost!!.

    The acting is really bad, the story is even worse.

    I have to agree with other comments about the fake reviews. When you look at all the reviews scoring this film highly, ALL the reviewers joined IMDb in April 2014 !!!!!!

    I recommend everyone avoid this film, unless their house or a friend is in the background, cos there is no other reason to waste any time on this film. It really, really is rubbish. I am sure the film people didn't set out to make a bad film, but it should have been shelved. It is not a film to have on a CV.
