This movie would only have work IF the main actor had managed to keep his viewers rivetted with his performance as the grief stricken dad, but this did not happen so I spent and hour an a half waiting for something interesting to happen, and I just wasted my time. Winstone spent the whole film mumbling, which I found irritating,and not at at believable.The end was confusing but from what I could figure out his daughter's best friend's father was sleeping with his little girl and supposedly funding her drug habit that eventually leads her to an early death. So daddy takes his revenge by sleeping with his daughter's best friend???That sounds like a really sick form of revenge to me for a grief stricken father who has just lost his little Princess. But then again I could have misunderstood the end, but considering nothing much happened I can only come to the conclusion I've just mentioned.I really wouldn't recommend renting this DVD. The movie is slow and makes for uncomfortable viewing seeing as Winstone probably felt he wasn't paid enough to actually speak up so his viewers can actually make out what he is saying, so on all fronts this is in my opinion a movie that had to have had alot of work done before public release.
