Such a bad bad movie. It is watchable, but not worth your time even in the most boring hours of your life. Skip it, or regret it.

It stars Parminder Nagra, Jonas Armstrong, and Stephen Dillane.In 2012 on the eve of the Olympics, a young lad is shot outside a nightclub and a young girl dies in a hit and run accident. Both deaths seem unrelated. Deeva Jani (Nagra) returns home from Paris to clear her brother Vip of the shooting and discovers a much deeper conspiracy that may involve the establishment and a vice ring.As a thriller this is by the numbers. As soon as you see the Tory Home Secretary on screen you know he will be involved. The moment you see shady policemen/spooks you can guess they are protecting the Home Secretary. As for the rest of the cast, it seems to be a roll call of actors who tend to appear in low budget urban films almost in a conveyor belt regularity.Nothing too thrilling or involving and its so flatly written as if all the life is sucked out of the characters on screen.
... View MoreThe positive review of this film either watched a totally different film to the one listed on this page, or have a vested interested in voting it so high.The acting in the film is fine, but the plot and editing makes this seem like a 4 part TV series tacked together to become a film. It was simply dreary. The UK can produce far better drama than this, see Shane Meadows work.Anyway, trust the bad reviews, it really is not good. I actually struggled to make it to the end, and was looking at my watch multiple times, to see how much longer I would have to suffer.
... View MoreThis has got to be one of the best films out this year. I was on the edge of my seat and totally enthralled by it. Gripping plot line and story, miss it and miss out. I went to see it expecting not to like it but was pleasantly surprised. It is not the sort of movie i would normally go to see but was dragged along and was glad I did. It is difficult to talk about the film without giving the game away but the synopsis is of a detective thriller type but there are red herrings galore and the game is never given away until the very end. Altogther a cracking good watch and a great night out in the cinema. It is something you should put at the top of your list of must see before the end of the year.
