a man return from the army to revenge the ill treatment of his brother by a gang of unsavouries . people be often put off british film with review which begin with gritty or realistic and but people should definitely give this film a try . it can be uncomfortable viewing at time and but thanks to the performance and direction it be a truly gripping piece of work . special praise should go to considine and whose performance have be favourably compare to de niro in taxi driver . he be able to play menace without ever resort to hammy and ott gesture or even a raised voice and it one of the most frightening and beautiful and realistic performance i have ever see . toby kebbell be also great a his simple brother and his warm and lovable performance make the final scene all the more distressing . this be a great film and i would urge everyone who be not afraid to stray from blockbuster once in a while to see it .
