A Belter of a thriller., 25 May 2002
8/10
Author: John Taylor (jdtaylor@btinternet.com) from Bedfordshire,England

Over the last 10 years there have many British crime movies , some fantastic and some not so good.Considering i had never heard of Going Of Big Time i was very impressed with the stylish thriller. Set in Liverpool we see the rise of a once innocent liverpudlian turn into a top gangster,which ultimately leads to disaster. I was i little weary of this when i saw it was set in Liverpool simply because there is no more irritating accent in the british Isles as the scally scouse accent and it can be very annoying. I'm please to say it is not the case in this movie. One thing i hate when reading reviews of British crime movies is that they always have to compare it to Lock,Stock and Two Smoking Barrels which is very unfair .That film is the bench mark and there has only been one film that has come close to matching it and that is the other Guy Ritchie film , Snatch. While this is no Lock, stock it is an above average thriller that will be enjoyed by anybody who loves the Genre. 8 out of 10
