VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Michael Ledo As Ron would say, "It's interesting." This is based on the true story of the Kray brothers (Tom Hardy) who ruled and terrorized London as gangsters. As the film begins they are already established gangsters being followed by the "coppers" wherever they go. Ron is being certified as crazy and takes meds. Part of the film is narrated by Frances Shea (Emily Browning) the girlfriend and wife of Reggie.The film is told as Reggie having to choose between his brother and everything else. Ron prevents Reggie from going straight and living the life Frances wants him to live. She had trouble coping with much of their life style. Ron is a very open homosexual in addition to his mental issues.The film ends at their arrests.

Alex Blok Have done what I do on the rare occasion I don't care about plot twists and such and read some reviews on IMDB whilst about 75% through the movie. Am assuming that those giving the movie bad reviews with regards to accuracy or claiming the film glorifies mobsters are either American or clueless snowflakes bought up in the world after Python, Morecombe & Wise, The Two Ronnies, Derek and Clive and such, all whose whole thing was based on tongue firmly planted in cheek.SPOILER ALERTFFS people, this film is pure satire, and it's genius! The reason I paused it to post this was that an example of the satirical nature is when Ron is about to carry out his hit at The Blind Beggar, he asked his sidekick "How do I look?" to which he gets his desired reply, "F*cking deadly!" Priceless.And when it comes to glorifying mobsters, the way Reggie behaves against those who cross him, even when it's unintentional, shows his true nature. So it is made perfectly clear he's as bad as his twin despite the BS he gives his girl. (Who is lovely by the way.)The film dives in, so those complaining it doesn't go into depth about the history fo the characters should read a book, where there is space. This isn't a biography, it's entertainment, and on that front, it's working for me.I'll continue my review after the remaining 25%.

gunes bayir The story is simple, and based on real events, Kray brothers in London mafia. It contains some brother drama, thrilling events but not very outstanding. Acting is undoubtedly perfect, Tom Hardy excels in this play. In overall, it was just fun to watch. I advise you to watch it without much expectation.

bixby-80106 Hard to understand much of the language though it is English which is normal if you are an American till the second half. But on to the movie. I am a identical twin myself so this movie resonated more with me. And all my reviews are spoilers so if you read any, they always are.So watched last night and two twins, one insane and in a mental hospital, though I guess they treated people there better in the states at that time, is released because of their connections. Losing all integrity as the psychatrist says before releasing him.So romance and the good twin gets married, though later raping your wife calls that into question, and for all of us that have enjoyed courtship and falling in love there are some beautiful scenes and dialoge between them. Well written as they are both independent and themselves.So the good twin goes to jail and in the meantime the paranoid schitzophrenic ruins the club when he gets out. Insults his wife and they fight and hugged afterwords. Should of done that with my own twin in Deadwood but that is another story.She realizes he will remain a gangster and starts being a "pill popper". As after the marriage he spends most of his time of his time at the club and doesn't spend time or love with here and his gentleman facade deteriorates and she is miserable. She commits suicide but after his twin ruins everything, and can go into all the details but it is an over 2 hour movie though it was never boring. I just don't feel like writing it. So he chooses family loyalty over his wife and regrets it and dies of cancer shorty after his release from prison. How a man could spend 33 years with that on his conscience I do not know. I know the bulliten board has been removed but you read books, watch film, look at art, and you want to share your experience of it.Hence the numbing of the emotions. It's a lot like a British Martin film but not as well done but with the same narrative and filming.So she overdoses, they both go to prison and die miserabley. Would of been better if they put at the beginning that this is based on a true story for us Americans here. Overall though. I watched Hardy in a movie just driving through the whole thing shot in very short while and he was suffering from a cold. He is one of my favorite actors and everything he does is worth watching in my opinion.
