About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a gritty London crime drama with rough violence, moody romance, and anti-hero tension, in the vein of Run All Night or Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead; Not for you if you need a tight, fast, straightforward story.
Pros: tough performances; sharp dialogue; punchy soundtrack | Cons: meandering plot; too many subplots; uneven pacing
