Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

nikksen_5 i guess around minute 20, triggered by the third annoying karaoke sequence - i turned this thing off...therefore i did not see the whole movie...therefore i cannot give it an honest # rating.(and btw i'm one of those who hates to not finish a movie once begun regardless)what a waste of cast - by that i mean jude lawgranted i started watching this as a netflix-back-to-back-cockney thing right after experiencing "Gangster No.1" which conversely was somewhat awesome and riveting on a number of levels.on netflix "this thing" popped up "because i just finished watching Gangster No.1"

CountZero313 Johnny Lee Miller is a bit of an enigma. One of the best actors of his generation, he often seems cursed in the choice of films he associates himself with. In Love, Honour and Obey, he once again gives a multi-dimensional performance in a vehicle unworthy of his efforts.A postman decides he wants to be a gangster and gets his childhood mate to introduce him to his uncle, a North London gang boss. He turns out to be a bit of a loose canon, and his ambition leads to his own demise.So, it's a bit like Goodfellas, but going after the tone of the Ocean's movies. Derivative? More like plagiarism. Remember the "speak Russian" joke during the sex scene in A Fish Called Wanda? If not, you might just laugh here. If you are one of the unlucky few who saw Final Cut, then you only have yourself to blame if you think the same cast and crew could up their game.Winstone posts in his performance, Law and Frost are having a laugh, Kathy Burke should be ashamed of herself, Ifans can file this beside his stint in The Replacements, and we occasionally have to suffer through the three worst actresses in Britain - Denise van Outen. Only Miller tries to put a shift in. The comedy is downright embarrassing. The visual conceits concerning karaoke and Miller's narration in a clown outfit are mildly engaging, but may just garner plaudits because they don't annoy like the rest of this disaster.It is generally pointless to ask why a film was ever made, but given the involvement of BBC Films in this fiasco, you do have to ask why the taxpayer's coin was spent on this billboard for crony-ism. I am not a fan of period dramas, but I can at least understand it is part of the BBC's remit to bring the works of revered British authors to screen. What, exactly, does this film tell me about Britain now? What will it say to audiences watching it a generation from now? Desperate, lazy and ill-conceived as cinema, this project is also quite disturbing in terms of what it says about the development process at BBC Films.And Johnny Lee Miller, get yourself a new agent.

Neil Welch This curious film is, to me, flawed in one fatal respect.A largely extemporised crime comedy/drama featuring some heavy-hitting UK talent, it is pretty funny most of the way through. I enjoyed, and was entertained by, about 90% of the movie. Everything, in fact, up to the very end.And then there are several violent killings.Now, I don't have a problem with violence, and I don't have a problem with mixing violence with comedy. But when you combine the two, it's a really good idea if there is a point to it - Little Big Man, for instance, where the savagery of genocide is given heightened contrast by the overall daftness of the rest of Jack Crabbe's life.No such consideration applies here, and the violence is instead completely out of place. The Coens made a similar mistake with Burn After Reading.
