One of my favorite movies! Great soundtrack and direction. Guy Pearce and Robert Carlyle are perfect for their roles! I tend to eat steak while watching this movie.

So many great, characteristic actors (of course both Pearce and Carlyle are awesome here). Story is great and spiced up by all this black sense of humour. All this is accopanied with music which suits both the time of action and whole spirit of this film. This is a must-see!
one of the most difficult movies to categorise. I think it's in dark comedy.

In addition to slick writing and excellent performances, the film features a great anachronistic score by Damon Albarn (of Blur and Gorillaz). A cult film in the truest sense, this unfairly ignored gem deserves to be seen by a wider audience.
