Tom Hardy is amazing

Rating: 10/10 (17 September 2015)

you don't need to know who the Kray twins are to enjoy this movie, I new very little about them and by the end of it, I still new very little about them, you do learn certain things they got up to and and by the end of it you come to know how it all ended, but in terms of any real character development you don't really get any, but that's fine, the movie itself is good and I found the pacing to be good as well, but the reason I gave it a 10/10 isn't because I think it's an amazing movie as it's not, but it is soley down to Tom Hardy's performance, I've never seen anything like it, he is great as Reggie, and even better as Ronnie. The man is a genius and is well on his way to becoming a 'Legend' in his own right.
The movie is good, the performances are good, take Tom Hardy out of the equation I'd give this movie a 6.5 out of 10, but as the movie stands with Tom Hardy's phenomenal performance I give it a 10, I'd recommend you watch it if only to watch Tom Hardy's performance.
