Craig was great.

Supporting cast (including young Tom Hardy and Sally Hawkins) was great.

Sienna Miller



And the ending, holy shite

I can see how Matthew Vaughn built a career off this movie.

Sienna Miller is so hot in this movie it hurts.

The lingerie when she walks out of the bathroom. My god.

Great movie too.

Great movie. Adapted from a book by J. J. Connolly who wrote a sequel called Viva La Madness in 2011. I've never read either but at one time it was being adapted to a film that would star Jason Statham as Mr. X.

quote:

His second novel, Viva La Madness was published in 2011,[3] and resumes after the first, in which only two characters remain: the unnamed narrator and his partner in crime, Mister Mortimer, AKA Morty. It begins in the Caribbean with Morty attempting to recruit the reluctant narrator back to London and the crime business as a super-salesman and closer for a UK syndicate.

This movie is so damned great. I'm glad it finally found its audience.

Haven't seen this movie in years, and it still sticks with me. Great film, and it was my first time noticing Craig. Dude killed it.

It's been so long I didn't realize Hardy was in it. Going to find this and watch this weekend.

OG movie lovers have always known and loved the film, especially after Craig got Bond, it was kind of must see to learn more about the actor.

Sienna Miller is on the modern Mt. Rushmore of female bombshell movie beauty and hotness in this movie.. right up there with Scarlett in The Island and Cuthbert in The Girl Next Door and Jessica Biel in London.

Craig may have had to use duct tape to suppress his happiness on those scenes.

It's among my favorite movies ever made. The seen with the flowers in Amsterdam is gorgeous. The cuts are phenomenal. It's a damn gem. The violence is stylized but visceral. The scene in the coffee shop where Morty pays that dude and then pours tea on his face is some of the best use of music in film. That movie is stunning. Period.

Great movie. I love the beat down scene set to Duran Duran's "Ordinary World".

Watched this on Netflix a couple weeks ago and it was great. Wish there was more Tom Hardy in it though. Went in thinking he was going to be a main character and he had like 5 min of screen time

One of the best English gangster films. Had to go by the Regency Cafe when I went to London

This was the same comparison that first came to mind as well, though without an analogous Sean Penn character. Kleinfeld may be the most hateable character in film history - got off insanely easy in terms of gangster movie retribution.

Thanks for posting this because I decided to watch it again the other night. It had been long enough that I forgot much of it (didn’t even realize Hardy was in it) so it was nice to enjoy it all over.
