1. One of the more interesting efforts in its genre, though it has been somewhat overrated.
2. One of the best modern mob movies ever made.
3. It's well-acted and clever and knows how to tell a story.
4. The thing absolutely resonates.
5. A marvelously suspenseful character study wrapped up in a refreshingly tight crime film.
6. What it lacks in originality it more than makes up for with Kingsley's performance.
7. Whenever [Ben] Kingsley shares the screen with Ray Winstone, director Jonathan Glazer's film is no less than electrifying.
8. "Despite superb performances, there's less to this stylish but grim, brutal, tawdry British thriller than meets the eye."
9. Like an unwelcome guest from way back when, it smarts, and shocks, and just for a moment blows your mind.
10. Just the latest film to illustrate that filmmakers from TV and videos not only know what they're doing, but do it a whole lot better than we'd like to admit.

What is a brief summary of the following reviews?
Sexy Beast rises above other movies in the British gangster genre due to its performances -- particularly an electrifying one by Ben Kingsley -- and the script's attention to character development.
