44inch Chest has a cast which includes Ray Winstone, Ian McShane, John Hurt and Tom Wilkinson. It is essentially a film based in one location and concentrating on the revenge of Winstone on his wife's lover. 44inch Chest is a very dialogue driven film with lots of expletives. The script is sharp and in places very funny with some memorable lines from each character. Hurt and McShane for me provide the standout performances, Hurt being particularly funny, however there is not a bad performance in the film. For me the film does get a little too weird in the final act as we follow the thought process in Winstone head but doesn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the film. In summary i found 44inch Chest a good quick enjoyable watch and nowhere near as bad as its reputation would suggest.
