You should take a butchers at this film...

Rating: 9/10 (9 June 2000)

I love this film, particularly the dialogue, which I am still translating the 3rd or 4th time around. Not only is it quick, clever and funny, it is almost lyrical.
The script may be one of the film's weaknesses though. For example, "keep your Adams on" - did Adam Ant sell records anywhere outside the UK, or to anyone other than 20something Brits? For someone who cannot be bothered to concentrate on the words, or for whom English is a second language, this film may not live up to the 9/10 I give it.
The film is also quite stylish (to my taste, which might not be saying much). I like the soundtrack and the dateless feel, references to 'a bad day in Bosnia' are 90's, but the cars and the London streets are more reminiscent of films and TV shows from the 60's and 70's. But again, perhaps this only appeals to a narrow audience.
