The film is about frank a small time dealer who gets busted. Loses the stash, owes a drug lord money and tried lots of desperate acts to try and rake in the money.. Not much else goes on. The film has a club / revolver jumpy, waisted point of view and I found it hard to follow. At one point frank has 20k then he only has 6k.. He owes 55k but runs round collecting 100 here and there.. The movie felt slow and not much happens. I was disported by the end, his bird runs of with the money... Meaning he will be yet again emptied handed for the drug lord. Your left feeling he will most likely die.. But I didn't care. It was slow and I would not recommend it. It's like a really rubbish layer cake.

I actually really liked this movie! It was frantic and exciting with strong character performances. I have never seen the original movies but threw this on late at night at my home in Vancouver and was instantly drawn in by the great story and cool plot line and dope music! The one thing i didn't like was the end but at the time of watching it i didn't realize that it was part 1. the lead actor was good, I read someone say he was kind of a dweeb, but i personally think he was great and his character was supposed to be like that. I think he was still a strong person not a geek or dweeb. i myself was in the drug trade for many years and this movie and his frantic performance rings true....Glad I got out when I did but i looks like for him things are just getting started!! Awesome music to keep the movie flowing as well!! I personally cant wait to see the next movie!! #Bravo I'm also a big fan of N.W.R love his movies

Richard Coyle is a drug dealer on the make in London. He and his mates do good business with different schemes. One day, an old prison mate comes to him to do a big buy. He takes on the risk by borrowing from a scary supplier. That's when things start to go wrong. Nothing goes his way.The style is the perfunctory hip drug story with bright colors and pounding music. There's nothing new here, but nothing wrong with it either. It's all about Richard Coyle. He's a compelling actor. He commands the screen. The major problem is that he's the most trusting drug dealer I've ever seen on film. Time after time he takes minimal precautions. It just made him more incompetent than Richard could portray.

I was thrilled when I first saw that a remake (and an English one at that!) was being mad. After watching the result I can only say that I wished I never watched it. The original is so much better that I am at a loss for words.The plot is still the same, and even though Milo is played by Zlatko he seem to have lost some of his original...zest.This might have been a descent remake if the casting had been better.For starters: Kim Bodnia played the original Frank, his alter ego in this one is not even a distant shadow of the same character. Tony comes across like some dweeb...Sorry but this is not good.
