Simply Perfect

Awesome Movie

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Frankie, a young lad on the run from the ghetto of South London, plans his escape and the beginnings of a new life in sunny Costa Del Sol. With nothing but cash stashed in his luggage he heads off, and has no idea that this sum of money will catapult him into the seductive world of ex-gangster Charlie. Before he knows it Frankie's got more then he bargained for - he's one of Charlie's gang and the world of organised crime......You know from looking at the one sheet if you will like this movie or not. Danny Dyer and the quote, from the director of the football factory. Some people would have balked at the idea of seeing this movie.But then some people deny themselves a guilty pleasure, because they want to look/sound more intelligent than they. Well you go and sit in Costa coffee with your copy if the telegraph and be bored, I'll get entertained for ninety minutes.And the film is a pleasure to watch. Its total fluff from beginning to end, but the music is brilliant, the sets and costumes spot on, and Dyer puts in a decent performance.It's the old age story of a boy wanting to be somebody,gets a chance, lives the high-life a bit, and then loses its all. Plain and simple.If you know the films of Nick Love, and Dyer and Hassan's movie, you'll know the film inside out before even opening the seal on the Blu Ray.It looks great, and even though it is a load of old cobblers owing a lot to Goodfellas, Scarface, and many other crime movies, owe yourself a bit of pleasure.Welcome to the pleasuredome......

You don't need a brain to understand this. But saying that, it can lead to arguments. Many people enjoy films that are easy to watch while some seem to find it offensive to there intellectual brains. Not all films have to be on a serious note. The business doesn't try to be an scarface or an Godfather. Sure it has many references towards scarface but it doesn't want to be an classic, it just wants to entertain and that the most important factor of any film, entertainment.The film is cliché but it don't matter about that as the characters are entertaining. There not the most in depth characters you'll ever come across neither can you relate to them but the use of language that they often express can make situations humorous. The film is backed by an cool 80s soundtrack trying to hit the same notes as scarface. The soundtrack is easily forgettable. The cast also works well. Sure there not the greatest actors but there fun to watch and you totally know what to expect from them.On the other hand, some lines will make you cringe for example " he so hard even his nightmares are afraid of him". This is where Nick Love shows his weakness and immaturity. This is an line which an 13 year old would write. The narrating from Danny Dyer's character seems out of place. His tone of voice is totally contrasted from his attributes and body language. They don't fit together. I'm not an huge fan of Dyer's acting abilities but none less , he manages to entertain. All he needs is more roles like the Borstal boy rather than being type-casted.Overall the film is enjoyable to watch. It has no plot but that don't matter . Unless your one of those so called people with intellectual brains who thinks all films so be made just for them,if not then you have nothing to fear and should watch this film for the hell of it.

This has to be one of my favourite films ever, Danny gorgeous Dyer and his good friend Tamear hussain team up in Nick loves brilliantly filmed the business, love the eighties any way and it was my era but the music the clothes and the cars in the film bring the memories flooding back of carefree happy days, Just like the film ,great direction and superbly acted through out this film is the best! superb casting for the characters who are all portrayed to an high standard,plenty of nutters in the film which always helps some great lines and action seated with humour and true reality of drugs and the vapours given from them.Would recommend any body to buy this film and would also defy them not to like it.

After watching this film for the first time (and it's been about10 or 11 times now) I became such a sucker for Danny Dyer! The bloke is amazing! He has such a presence in this film that I have become devoted to seeing every movie of his from now on (some not so good). This film is so class that I watched it twice in a row once. Never a dull moment and so many one-liners you'll have yourself in stitches! The cast consists of most of the Brit flick regulars including Danny, Dyer, Geoff Bell, Tamer Hassan and Roland Manookian (in a small but memorable role) - so you won't be disappointed! Defintitely worth a watch (or two or three)!! There is always a movie in an actor's career that generates a new-found respect for them... This is the one for Danny!
