IMO, This film shouldn't have been made at all, it wasn't one of Danny's best! In-fact i think it's his worst one yet and i predict that it will never be watched more than once by anyone, it's that sort of film, it's very boring and nothing really happens, it's the same thing all the way through the film, and the end was terrible, I was expecting more violence, better acting from all actors and a better story line! Granted, Danny dyer plays quite a good insane person, but his acting shines through more when he plays gangster type roles or hard man acting roles! Stick to what you do best Danny, the hard man acting works, this doesn't!

Well, this movie was bad. I thought the premise sounded decent enough; "Told over one horrifying night, Deviation will take you on a white- knuckle journey into the mind of Frank Norton" OK Frank (Danny Dyer) is an escaped murderer. Good start, and he takes a Amber (Anna Walton) hostage. So far, you have a movie brewing. WRONG. After this, it is boredom of silence in between Frank killing people in boring ways for no apparent reason. The film is basically kill scene followed by 15 minutes of silence, repeat, etc. This could be OK if a few things happened like quality kills, or down time of speaking about the "why" thing in his head or some form of humor. NOPE. The acting is so plain it is frightening, and the camera work is subpar for a young child. I must say it is entirely possible the plot was written on a napkin at a bar the night before. Do yourself a favor, avoid. 3.2/10

Anna Walton stars as nurse Amber. She is introduced while walking and talking on a cell phone. The one sided conversation is annoying. When she is abducted by psycho killer Frank Norton (Danny Dyer) I was hoping for her early demise. Such was not the case. The movie consists mostly of these two individuals in a car playing mind games with each other. Everyone who tries to help Amber gets killed, almost to the point of being comical. The ending has a nice twist (pay attention during the film), but it is debatable if it was worth dragging through the entire film. Good acting. Might work as a rental if you like abduction films. F-bomb, no sex, or nudity.

Told over one night, a white-knuckle journey into the mind of Frank Norton, a dangerous schizophrenic murderer as he escapes from Broadmoor Hospital and embarks on a murderous rampage across London. But when Frank takes a hostage, the deadly game of cat-and-mouse truly begins...... You get what you pay for when you see a movie with Danny Dyer in it, namely Danny Dyer. His surname does resemble some of the movies he has made, and this contribution, is nothing special, it does divert for the running time. Dyer plays Dyer, albeit a strange twisted creature, one who for some reason takes on a strange accent every now and again, and he kidnaps a Nurse, and the plunder through plot holes until the predictable climax. If you like Dyer, you probably will lap this up, if like me, you tolerate him, you will watch the film, think 'why didn't she do this/that/the other' and forget it in an instant. Not as bad as what the critics say, not as good as Dyer fans say it is.

The landan cant film gov cant gov. Too many to note. Too many to get ashamed about. The kind of films that only get made because some guy lives next door to someone's agent who then knows a guy who knows another guy who can get a production house discount. A film made out of convenience rather than enthusiasm and that is evident from how painfully slow Deviation is, i mean damn. Nothing happens in this film. Danny Dyer, in one of the most miscast roles of his cinematic career, takes a nurse hostage and just terrifies her then for the next ninety minutes. Cue some chintzy hope spots and run ins from superfluous and poorly acted supporting characters, artless cinematography and an oversaturated colour palette. Deviation is just as terrible as it's one sheet suggests. Danny Dyer was brought onto this production it seems just for purely economic reasons and the film suffers greatly from this choice. Dyer is good at playing a certain type, but that type is sure as hell not an en quote "complex" schizophrenic killer. Dyer is terrible in this film and Anna Walton doesn't fare so well either as his co-star. They are not helped by the insipid screenplay which incites no engaging drama and its social commentary is lazy and has no value apart from unintentional parody. Deviation is a cheap psycho thriller with an awful central performance from Dyer who admittedly only had lazily written and poorly researched material to work with and is just as irrelevant now as it was eight years ago.

Danny Dyer, like Michael Cain, seems to suit every role he plays. Don't read any more if you don't want to know about this film. Basically this movie is not so much action packed. It is just Danny Danny acting the bad guy, which I don't like. I found this movie less than engrossing, but none the less very real. Danny Dyer kidnaps a woman, goes on the run in her car, and she ends up spiking his drink, and she knifes him. She then walks away with Danny Dyer lying on the ground, dead. This movie reveals to me how easy Danny Danny, like Michael Cain, seems to fit every role he takes. But I still don't like him playing the bad guy.

Deviation is truly mesmerising viewing, depicting a battle of wits between an on-the-run psychopath and a nurse. The story is impossible to predict, as it twists and turns towards its unexpected climax. Danny Dyer is compelling as the troubled escapee, who wants to start a new life, but circumstances, during the course of the film, do their utmost to thwart him. Anna Walton, as the hostage, imbues her role with intelligence and resolve, hoping to find a crack in her captor's armour. The desolate urban locations were well chosen, adding a bleak impersonal backdrop to the tense human drama. J. K. Amalou directs with poise and assurance, drawing nicely controlled performances from his two leads. This is a great psychological thriller, well worth watching.

Danny Dyer is an enigma. A man not particularly... well, anything at all, and yet he still has a loyal fan base and, even more surprisingly than that, a career. The only thing weirder, is why I keep watching his films. The Business and Severence were excellent (and I will admit to also like Doghouse), plus he did one about football hooliganism which was just about okay, but pretty much everything else he's done is terrible. If you read the blurb it says, and I quote: "NERVE-SHREDDING TERROR... DANNY DYER AS YOU'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE Prepare yourself for one of the most terrifying films of the year. An all-action, adrenaline-fueled bloodbath" I have to wonder why no one's reported the film-makers for false advertising. Perhaps because no one has actually bothered to watch the films? Dyer plays an escaped nut-job who kidnaps a middle class mum and drives her around London while he flips from being nice then nasty to her. Everywhere they stop she tries to escape and fails. Will she get away in the end? I defy many people to actually care. I like horror and thrillers and there are some real low budget gems out there (try 'Mum and Dad'), but this is not one of them. Repetitive, badly-written and not particularly well acted either. Avoid.

I enjoyed this film, because Danny Dyer is a superb actor and played the psycho Frankie really well that I could see that he was a troubled person with inner demons. The actress in the lead was also good and the two played off each other well. Frankie escapes from prison and hijacks the girls car and threatens her with his razor and ties her up by one wrist with some plastic bind, then off he drives with her telling her hes going to Kent to an airfield to get a plane to fly off. On their route they come across people who get in Frankie's way and he kills them including a fan of his who follows them and hits a policeman who is questioning Frankie and for his help Frankie cuts his throat! Frankie takes a shine to the girl and tells her of his life and his problems, at a petrol station while hes buying petrol the girl writes a help note and sticks it in a makeup purse and leaves it on the ground hoping someone will help her, but this bloke steals the money and dumps the purse down a grate. The girl does escape but Frankie gets her in the end and off they drive again until he wants to change the car and she stops a passer by and Frankie puts him in the boot of the old car and they steal this man's car, luckily for her she finds the man's mobile and rings her husband and tells him everything while Frankie's in a shop. Frankie of course finds out and is not pleased thinking she likes him so off they go again, she then has some pills for panic attacks and asks him for them and while pretending to swig it she spits it into the bottle and it dissolves then Frankie swigs it and starts to feel weird, he stops the car in the middle of nowhere and there's a chase and she tells him what shes done and that he has not got long to live thanks to these pills to which he feels worse and the ending is she stabs him with his razor and kills him.

I'm a pretty big Danny Dyer film fan, sadly, he ticked no boxes with this role. There was no physiological tension between the two of them, the spaces between were of uncomfortable silence, not suspense. I thought Danny Dyer took this character of Norton to far, it was unconvincing. By 30 minutes in I wanted to turn off, the first Dyer film to do that to me, but I didn't want to waste my £3.80 that I payed to Sky Bob Office, 90minutes of my life I won't get back, and that's not even starting on the ending. Regardless of if what ''Amber'' gave ''Norton'' is realistic or not ''her being a nurse and all..'' is irrelevant, it's more the sheer terrible decision to end it that way, to even include that in the plot. The acting from the other guys is a little left to be desired to, the guy who attacked Norton in the street with a bit of wood, looked like he was tickling him.. Awful.
