Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe Rotten Tomatoes critics consensus reads "The real Twist in this lunkheaded Dickens update is the involvement of Michael Caine, who hopefully got another terrific house out of it." This is a reference to Jaws: The Revenge (1987), a legendary cinematic turkey for which Sir Michael Caine was paid handsomely. Caine later admitted "I have never seen it [Jaws: The Revenge], but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific."
- GoofsAt around the 58 minute mark when the van and Sikes car are driving under the bridge both vehicles have their lights on as it is starting to get dark. However, in the next scene when the van is stopped at the roadblock it is broad daylight again.

Review
Featured review
Tries too hard
Liked the idea of Oliver Twist being set in modern times, but this is poorly executed. The makers have tried way too hard to be gritty and street, so much so that it's like a parody of gangsta films. I mean, David Walliams makes an appearance for goodness sake. Throwing in a soundtrack featuring 90's Brit bands doesn't make it edgy either. Weak storyline, poor acting and unconvincing 'criminals' With the likes of Headey and Caine in it, it really should have been better.
