There is no doubt that this film sticks in the mind. But it is most defiantly a film that will split opinions down the middle. Violent and morally dubious this film turns the stomach.
The direction is confident but the rape scene will unsettle to the point of nausea, as will the frequent violence.
But there's just something else about this film. Something highly unsettling. I can't put my finger on in it but there's something that just makes you feel dirty. And I'm no prude.
Mostly the cast is good but it's all a bit lock stock for my liking.
Special mention to Terry Stone who is very good, if occasionally over reliant on the dreaded C word but Vas Blackwood and Jayson Fleming just seem like they are sleep walking through there doubtless well paid roles.
Technically proficient, well made and with a certain sheen that most UK films lack this film has more than it's fair share of stand out moments. But as I said it leaves you feeling... dirty.
