This film has the potential to be excellent… I like the idea…. the cast is excellent (Jonny Lee Miller, Robert Carlyle, Ken Stott & Liv Tyler) but the film really doesn’t live up to its potential. Sure it’s 110 mins of fun, worth renting maybe… but that’s about it. The picture is OK, audio is actually much better, and the extras are pretty appalling. There’s 5 mins of interviews, some ‘behind the scenes’ footage, which is just that, and nothing else (not worth even looking at) and a trailer. What is actually worth reading is the booklet that comes with the disc – by far the most interesting extra!

Overall, a bit of a disappointment. One to rent, not buy.
