Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Majikat Probably not as good now as it once was, but still worthy of a viewing! In the rear of its release, it seems to be 'smarter than your average' drug movie, but many similar have been out since.A good role for Daniel Craig, a minimal role for Tom Hardy.Part of most people's 'best of the British' list

tmpsvita First project for Matthew Vaughn ("Stardust", "Kick-Ass", "Kingman") as director, he had previously played only roles as producer, and this is the first proof of his great talent as such. "Layer Cake" has all the features that have made Vaughn a very influential personality in the world of entertainment cinema, especially in recent years; also here the director is often dynamic, very fluid, fast, almost frenetic, extremely original and imaginative, especially in the appropriate but never predictable use of certain tools to create sequences with a strong visual and emotional impact thanks to beautiful camera movements and long shots. A script certainly interesting and engaging, as well as well designed but that in its being quick to keep up with the (masterful) editing and directing, lose a few pieces. Given also the considerable amount of details and information that are added with the advancing of time and that make the story more and more complex, more "calm" moments would have been pleasing to be able to rework the whole and be able to better understand the plot that in some points get confused. This is why the film although technically is incredible and the interpretations are quite satisfying, in the end it gave me the feeling of being a half-exploited opportunity that, yes, in general is more than sufficient, but that if better managed from the narrative point of view could really have left a more significant sign in the "modern" cinema, it could have turned into a small pearl destined to become a cult.

King-Rishab Flawed. Too many plot holes and boring at times. XXXX thought he was very smart and gets toasted often and a big bang in end. Many situations and the way the whole film moves, doesnt feel real even for a movie. Maybe the director and script writer were also high on a dose.

MrMovieMe If this movie would have come out 10 years later, it would have made a huge hit.Matthew Vaughn's first outing as a director sees him play. He doesn't take a step back, hesitating, which results in some great fight scenes. The "Ordinary World" sequence showing us a glimpse of Vaughn's vision that would in the future give us some of the best one screen fights in Kick-Ass, Kingsman and Stardust.The Casting is great; showing us some of Britain's best talents. Vaughn's casting is tight and stars in the making come out of his movies.This movie might not have been a bond movie, but aside from "Casino Royal" this is Craig's best Bondish movie.
