Film not centered on what it wants

After watching this film I came away thinking that the filmmakers made this with a smirk on their faces. I know its done in tongue in cheek but this story seems to ramble and then aimlessly wander about, especially towards the end when I had grown tired of this messy story and the film wants to trick you and not end when you think it should. The actions of the two leads are inexcusable and the film uses the fact that they get knocked around to somehow give credence for they're actions. The best reason for watching this film are the two actress's that star. Susan Lynch and Rachel Weisz are engaging enough but its to bad that the material isn't better. Film plays like a second rate version of "Bound" but without the lesbianism. This is a script that really needed a rewrite. A little of everything seems to have been thrown in! Film really has no focus. Too bad, because they have two good actress's that probably could have done something with this material.

Park your brain, enjoy

If only the baddies had more awful endings in this, I would have smiled more broadly. That's my only complaint. My wife and I have very different tastes in movies-- she's into fantasy, I prefer realism, but occasionally we find a show which we enjoy equally. This is one. It's refreshingly different, and I find the suggestion that it's a Thelma & Louise wannabe quite ridiculous. So it's two women against everybody else...but by comparison, T & L was a quite forgettable movie for me. This one doesn't try to milk laughter out of its audience; indeed, it almost dares one to laugh, which makes it special and probably explains why it didn't do well at the box office. An imaginative little movie, far more entertaining than most of the stuff served up to us.

Not bad, a british version of goodby lover sort of...

This film reminds me of Bound or Goodbye Lover but with an british ala Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels style. It was entertaining ,not great but good, with a fair number of twists. 3 1/2 stars out of five.
