Seen better gangster flicks, but if you love Tom Hardy, like I do...

Rating: 7/10 (24 November 2015)

We all love Tom Hardy. He's a great actor for the big screen. This time around we get him playing two characters in one film.
Hardy plays Ronnie and Reggie Kray, who ruled the streets of the south side of London during the sixties. Tom handle this duality like a champion, creating two very distinct characters. My favorite performance however, was Hardy as Ronnie Kray, the unstable twin brother.
Overall, I did find the narration of the movie a little bit flat. It feels like Goodfellas with a narration, by Reggie Kray's wife, telling their story from her point of view, but It feels too by the numbers and did not have the heart that Goodfellas had.
But it did have some good violent scenes that were gruesome and funny, which I loved
Good for Hardy fans.
