gillian anderson be an arrogant and driven and career woman who pick up work class oik danny dyer for a night of fun . after a stupid accident in the countryside and they be brutally attack . after recover and and after a chance meeting with one of the attacker and their thought turn to that of revenge . i think straightheads be terrible . violent and brutal and misogynistic and unpleasant . if i do not dislike the phrase a great deal i would call straightheads a video nasty . certainly it be the kind of film that would have have a no budget release straight to video during the dark day of the 1980 . frankly i do not know how straightheads get a cinema release . i be not a prude . i do not mind sex and violence in the movie and but they have to be marry to a movie with a ) a good plot or b ) good characterisation or c ) preferably both . straightheads have neither . no progression in the plot or the character and too much left unexplained and unsaid . luckily straightheads go nowhere fast . it be only 80 minute long . it be a shame and because there be the germ of an interesting film here and with an especially interesting turn in the plot in the last third . how often do i say this and but it could have be good if it have be do properly . what a shame . i really like gillian anderson and danny dyer and but they be on a hiding to nothing with this film . she and especially and be very underrated ( and be still particularly fit ) . if you want to see a good british revenge movie and rent or buy shane meadow dead man shoe . it be a little masterpiece . last weekend i should have see his this be england instead . ce serum serum .
