| | Customer Reviews: Disappointing (01 July 2008)I was hoping for a good British gangster movie but this isn't. A lot of people like Sean Bean but I always got the impression it was somebody acting. The driver was well played and, as usual, the film went up a couple of notches when Tom Wilkinson appeared. As well as the acting the poor script let the film down. rubbish (18 June 2008)They claim this film is based on the rettedon murders, but the only similarity is that 3 guys got shot in a 4x4 in feild, thats it, Sean Bean is laughable as a Essex gangster and the film never grips you at all. If you enjoy a gritty British gangsta film then this is not the one for you, this is boring Don't Bother.. (04 May 2008)If like me, you were interested in the Rettendon Murders that took place back in the 90's, then don't bother with this film. Even if you have no interest in the subject matter at all I still wouldn't bother as its not very well written, directed or cast. Which is a shame! To be fair Alex Kingston (Yes, from ER..) rises above the turgid cess-pit of verbage, that doubles for a script and puts in a fine performance,(as you would expect) although she is purely there as the 'love interest' which actually isn't necessary, and only serves to punctuate the fact that had the writers actualy read the only book so far worth reading on the matter - 'Bloggs 19', they would have realised that they had passed over an entire wealth of material that could have made for an excellent movie. What a waste. Don't bother with the book 'Essex Boys' either - it was renamed to co- incide with this film, and Carlton Leaches book, 'Muscle' doesn't shed any new light on the subject matter either.. Sorry Carlton.. Go read 'Bloggs 19' by Darren Nicholls. Its a great book and he was there.. Loved it!! (14 June 2007)I have to say I was a bit worried about this film. I'm not sure why I was?! Sean Bean is absolutely amazing (as usual) as the bad guy (no change there!). He is an awful, violent killer, but I still didn't want anything bad to happen to him!! This is a great, violent look into drug crime and revenge. I really really really like this film and Sean Bean is fantasic Essex Boys (11 April 2005)Very much like Lock Stock but a bit more black. Would advise viewing of this. Plot is good with quite a few twists and turns. Alex Kingston plays a very good part. |
