Rock solid film -- and oh yeah the best actor on the planet

Rating: 9/10 (1 March 2016)

Lets get the film itself out of the way.
Given limited subject matter (the Krays, already done to death, films and documentaries, I think there is even a breakfast cereal) this is a rock solid film with tight direction and a good script.
OK, now to the actor.
Hardy is the best actor on the planet at this time.
Does not matter how many awards he was won (or not won) and does not matter if you kind reader agree with me or not. Best actor.
Amazing actors, actors who pop out, come and go. I remember when that title went to Christian Bale, who could lose 40 pounds to play one role and then reapprear as Batman a year or two later and then do a sci fi where he practically had to dance while firing a gun. He was the guy.
Now Hardy is the guy. Seriously. To convince yourself that this the same guy we saw in Warrior and Revenant, and to grasp that he not merely putting on an acting clinic but as twins COMPETING WITH HIMSELF is beyond words.
See it
