I saw it a couple fo weeks ago and liked it a lot, London Gangster flics have become a bit a cliche recently (well they have in the UK anyway) and several naff ones have been made, but this one stands out from the herd. It's stylish, but not over stylised, has good performances and sound track and enough jumps in the plot to prevent it from becoming predictable. Volience is limited, but whats there is often sudden and brutal. It only had a budget of about 4 million, but it looks like 10x that. The trailer is pants though.
Recommend to those who like Mona Lisa/The Long Good Friday/Get Carter/The Sweeney etc.
