The Business

Danny Dyer (from Football factory) makes another outstanding appearance in this new film of his. I'm not going to spoil it for you telling you what happens - but to summarise - drugs, hot women, money, guns, and lots of comedy - make this a worthy film ! Danny Dyer has a superb acting style and just leaves you wanting to see more. The set, characters, and the story make this a top film in my book. Be warned if your easily offended - by drugs, women, and swearing don't watch this film. I enjoyed it - hope you do to !

I loved this film, the music and the costumes, just caught the feel of the 80s and got it spot on. Yes, none of the actors are that well known, but then in my book thats a good thing, I don't go into the film with any pre conceived ideas. And yes sometimes the language does cut very close to the bone, but these people are hardened criminals, and its a 18 cert as well, so that should give you some idea of the content. I say go and see it, and just enjoy yourself and have a few laughs for 2 hours. And did i mention the sound track, dust off those shell suits and enjoy.

This is just barely entertaining enough to continue watching it to see if it gets better. It doesn't. There are some crusty characters but none of them are well acted enough to really keep your attention. I think the makers of this film realized that and blared 80's tunes throughout the movie to give a bit more appeal and a kick to an otherwise boring film. This is about Frankie who falls in with some limey gangsters in Spain. This movie is poorly shot. The action scenes are boring, the sex scenes aren't sexy and the rest of it is stale as well. If you really really liked "sexy beast" and wanted to meet it's less talented ugly brother- well mate, this is it! When watching this film I couldn't help but count the many other films that did all of this so much better. Layer cake, sexy beast, lock stock and two smoking barrels and snatch to name a few. All are much better choices than this.

Classic British gangster film set in Spain. Great dialogue and funny scenes. The third act is a little dark but overall it's an enjoyable film with a great 80's soundtrack.

Before i saw this film at the pictures i decided to check out what everyone else thinks of it first - i was disappointed with their reactions but went to see the movie anyway. I pleasantly surprised. This film doesn't claim to the blockbuster of the year nor does it contain the sparkle and polish of snatch and lock stock. What it does do however is provide an amusing and gripping view of the rise and fall of an 80s wannabe gangster. To anyone outside of the UK this film may seem abit alien, but there are enough twists, turns and cheeky slang to keep you amused throughout. Just watch it don't take it too seriously and make up your own mind. (Frankie knocks on Sammys door) Sammy Answers: "did anyone order a c***?"

If you think Scarface in Spain but with cockneys you're half way there! From the beginning its clear that this is a first rate British film. If your not hooked from the frantic opening then the 80s music will definitely get your attention! The film tells the story of Frankie, a Londoner with no prospects. After he kills his mothers abusive boyfriend he flees to Spain to lie low and so begins his new life. There he is taken in by Charlie, a club owner and local gangster. Frankies now living the high life, but with power comes greed and danger, and you could so easily lose it all... There really is nothing to fault about this film. I was hooked from start to finish.

I completely disagree with the vast majority of reviewers so far, this was a great film. Granted, it may be similar to other films of its genre, but the 80s settings were meticulous in my view. Spanish Guardia Civil with their feared (now banned) tri-corn hats, 80s cars, definitely NOT the modern Malaga airport, and the fashions and language used. I left Cineworld feeling exhilarated - great soundtrack and good plot. I would recommend this film to anybody, Nick Love has done it again after the superb Football Factory. How can anybody call Danny Dyer Z-List?? Granted, he may be no Michael Douglas, but just because he is young, and obviously has a talent for the types of part he tends to play in movies, does not make him a bad actor at all, in fact, i think the exact opposite. I will definitely be pre-ordering the DVD.
