well . that be an afternoon of my life that could have be much well occupy by almost anything . root canal work spring to mind . at first i half expect to see leslie nielsen appear and then it gradually dawn on me that this be suppose to be take seriously . half an hour in my eye begin to wander towards our bookshelf and book that hitherto have little appeal suddenly look tempting ( fly fishing for beginner and advanced motor mechanic and so on ) . the write on this film be incredibly poor . the key character ( bobby . i have to stop and think about it ) have the topography of a millpond . the actor be visibly bemuse and be clearly struggle to make anything worthy at all do not they read this script . i can usually pretty much work out what be go to happen in a film and get a kind of perverse thrill out of that know i can not be shock or surprise ( ennui be my middle name ) but with this offer the plot be so easy to read that there wasn not even a thrill to be gain in this sense . the part where the cop ( shock surprise ) be follow the wrong car make me groan . there be also obvious lift from other film . the post heist scene be rip and mangle from ( the very good ) lock stock and two smoking barrel which unfortunately stimulate a momentary direct comparison of the two film oh dear . much other plagiarism be evident which be ok if well do and after all this be a film in a retro style so should be expect but this be the sub pas rate night before deadline desperately download student of film plagiarism it grate so much that there be blood run out of the dvd player . james marsters who play the central character seem very uncomfortable and out of place . he have this be crp write all over his face and it show . strangely for someone who have quite a good english accent in buffy the vampire slayer and his native accent be all over the place . in buffy and his english accent be convince and although it veer between olivier henry v and eastender peggy mitchell at time and it be still very good and in this film he paradoxically sound like an englishman do an incredibly bad u accent . jm be a good actor and if a little overdone and but in this movie he give a poor performance . he doesn not seem convince by the character and therefore doesn not engage the audience . the plot and actor creak and groan along like a 1970 charabanc to morecambe ( but not a jolly ) and come to a shudder close which be all too predictable . at the end ( praise the lord ) i felt the need to go and watch something good to get the taste of bad film out of my mouth . luckily for me almost anything in my collection would suffice in this regard . i would imagine and give the other review and that the main actor substantial fan base will enjoy this film and and fair enough but try not to overdo the hyperbole and chuck .
