About
You’ll likely enjoy this fast, darkly comic London crime caper if you like chaotic gangster antics and witty dialogue, but Not for you if you want likeable leads or a straightforward plot; you may also prefer Snatch.
Pros: razor-sharp humor; wildly entertaining payoff; catchy British vibe | Cons: too many overlapping characters; accents and slang can challenge; some find it dull
