10 to make the score higher. Real score 7. It's very subtle movie on every level and involves some recognition of the world portrayed, or else the characters may be too bland. They do after all inhabit a boring world. I thought the dialogue was OK, despite people saying otherwise. It was natural and did the job. It provided a dead pan humour as lines were played straight. It did have space for more interesting plot and some twists and turns but the padding was OK. It was a little predictable and nothing new or interesting is to be found. The ending could have been better. Seems to split people down the middle. I've seen a lot worse. Mark Addy did a good job. I don't know why it wasn't more successful. Maybe after lock stock people seen this as an inferior version of that style.
