Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

choppedliverwurst why do i keep wasting my time and energy watching uk movies with low production values? I've seen a lot recently and none of them deserves to be called a professional movie.This one has a famous British actress who has done television but never had any success in movies. If she had done success in movies then she would not have appeared in bad day.The other main girl is very good looking ( with false looking teeth)but she has an accent I could not place. Is she English or trying to sound English? She is one of two actresses with odd accents in this.The story makes no sense SPOILERS the Policewoman files a sexual harassment against a male cop then later tells him she is pregnant and tries to be his friend.There are some fight sequences but the movie does not make sense. A girl from Girls Allowed is in this...she is an embarrassing actress.The men actors are no better. I downloaded this and it was waste of effort

maryhall2010 Saw this movie in the UK at the BAFTA screening rooms. Cool action flick some what unoriginal but some good laughter in the right places and applause when suitable. It has a good broad based appeal. Didn't get bored which these days is a good sign. Anthony Ofoegbu (one on the stars) does weary cop very well and is funny, Claire Goose is outstanding and engaging and rookie side kick Donna Air is completely believable as the cop dealing with an unwanted pregnancy. A lot of fun but be warned violent from time to time. Wasn't going to review this film but after reading other unfair reviews on this page I thought I'd tell it as it is. The bad reviews came across like an attack for some reason and no I'm not part of the crew or know any of the film makers on this picture. Anyway watch it and make your own mind up. I liked it.

jasonallan0072003 Bad Day may be the single best UK low budget movie ever made, and quite fittingly it is by one of the most creative directors of the independent film world, Ian David Diaz. Don't know who he is? Just buy or rent out The Killing Zone a movie that was wrongfully denied of any attention from the British film industry but praised by Harry Knowles from Ain't it cool.This movie is really entertaining from beginning to end, the dialog is surprisingly hilarious for this type of film, and I think that's what has made it so unique. The film does not even reach a tenth the degree of violent represented by the average Tarantino film, and it relies, instead, on amazing performances, flawless direction, a great soundtrack and edgy, tense camera-work. I'm from the states and I order this movie on line because my DVD player can handle the European system DVDs. The film starts with a brutal murder by two black dudes, one being Dominic Debias and the other being Marlon Sage Kerr, who kick-start the film with unbridled meanness'. This scene is then followed by the heroine of the movie Rebecca Ryan played by the brilliant Claire Goose. From here on in you have entered a world of the cop movie (but it's set in England) with all the trappings, the no nonsense black boss (Robbie Gee), the good looking rookie cop played by the sexy Donna Air and the worn-out experience cop Darius Cruise played with excellence by Anthony Ofoegbu.The editing by Diaz is slick and even though it was all shot hand held the quick-cuts, close-up camera shots and the variety Bad Day has is not just held within inside its narrative, but within its technical side too. Then you have the brooding use of music composed by Dominic Glynn painting the film with a dark level of ill feeling. The set-pieces are also well crafted, the chase, the fight in the junk yard between Claire Goose and Donna Air, the shoot out in the restaurant and the climax in the church which was performed with such power by Claire Goose and Donna Air.For me Donna Air was the brake through performance of this movie her entire body: running, screaming, fighting, running some more: the being and thinking blond thing was part of her character, and my God she did an outstanding job! This is not to say that the rest of the cast didn't do as well because they did. Bad Day is, quite simply, a hard-boiled, cop movie masterpiece and definitely deserves a watch if you haven't seen it.

refdan This film is one of many so called "gritty British crime films" extant these days. Mixed in is a theme of revenge with pretty females added to the mix for obvious reasons. It appears that the writer had a germ of an idea that somehow got distorted in the process of realization.Generally, revenge films are interesting if the wronged person is victimized by hateful acts and the perpetrators are known to be killers or worse. In this case, the victim sees the result, but doesn't know who did it or why. The plot develops as the victim proceeds to wreak havoc on anyone and everyone she knows before she can ascertain who really did it and why.Several inconsistent scenes play out: gun fights where more people get killed than there are shots fired. A seasoned police officer approaches a known killer and fails to disarm her before getting plugged. Police are portrayed as either corrupt or stupid. Criminals are shown as arrogant and stupid. These clichés in an otherwise good film make one's eyes roll.If you expect to see an intelligent, though-provoking film, this one is not for you. It appears to me that the actions of the protagonists are created just for shock value, not to show how a rational person might deal these circumstances.
