Just got back from seeing this, it was actually a very good film tbh. It didn't seem very sugarcoated and I'd imagine it's a fairly accurate depiction of the Kray twins!

Also Duffy is in it omg.

Duffy's cameo was so random. Nice, but random. laugh.gif

I saw this myself yesterday and I enjoyed it too. Didn't "love" it though and thought it dragged a fair bit in the middle, but I thought it was good enough. Absolutely fantastic performances from ALL involved though. Brilliant stuff and I would love to see Tom get a few award noms for his portrayal of each of the twins.

Just seen it and I loved it. Tom Hardy is such a good actor and the rest of the cast truly delivered also. And Duffy was amazing in her small sections.

I went to see this today and was thoroughly impressed! Huge props to Tom Hardy of course, quite the remarkable job of playing both the Krays and differentiating the roles so much. I was interested in the story anyway so despite the duration, I felt it like it went by really quickly. As pointed out, there was no sugarcoating as it just got down to business with the plot and the violence was rather brutal in places. Great stuff, my dad also commented that it was a lot better than the 90s adaptation starring the Kemps too - may have to check that one out to compare (though apparently it focuses more on their earlier life anyway).

The Duffy cameo was indeed incredibly random! laugh.gif
