  Yes, I liked this although it took me quite some time to figure out that I did. It's one of those films that you half-watch but which plays on your mind ... read more »

  Interesting but...
  
  Andy Serkis is amazing but the rest of this film serves just as supporting scenery.

  Dull, tedious sub-culture rubbish, with a screenplay that looks as if it's been pirated from a (bad) video-game. A good example of how the British film ... read more »
