Shopping Movie Reviews

Here's the plot- some cool criminals in a not too distant future industrial London steal cars, only to drive them into posh shopping malls to loot what they can before hearing police sirens, basically for the rush- wicked. This debut from PAUL ANDERSON (EVENT HORIZON) is a nifty little film that manages to exite in it's short running time. Gritty and well acted by some up and comming English talent (SEAN PERTWEE is excellent as usual as a tough scumbag), this flick has some slick production for an indie. A movie that looks good, moves with purpose, and draws the viewer into a world of grime and crime is always worth it.

I liked watching this it is something that will make u cheer for the bad guys!Starring Jude Law and Sadie Frost.Its mainly about two Kids stealin cars and driving then thru car windows for no reason apart from addrenalin rush!its more of an action fans thing but fans of Jude,this is perfect for u! so add to your basket!

What can i say this movie is not for most people. It is in a class of its own. It takes guts to make a movie like this. Death,destruction, car chases, cheesey british rock. It almost reminds me of vanishing point meats darkcity its a classic in my book.

The story line is not a bad one, but the filmmaking is extremely lacking. Instead of trying to capture the Wong Kar-Wai feel, they should've just asked Wong Kar-Wai to make the script himself (though he may have been upset at finding where his missing wig had gotten off to). The "twist" comes off rather ham-handed and would have worked better as a spoff, not a spoof, but a spoff. The one star is merited for the one funny moment in the movie ("What are you doing next Sunday?"). For a much better film dealing with identity, check out Ash's Bang.

I don't think it's fair to compare to a first feature film to accomplished director like Kar-Wai Wong who directs an award winning cast. It's an early film by emerging directors and it weaves a narrative thread akin to another young filmmaker Shinobu Yaguchi's films "Down the Drain" and "Adrenaline Drive." In these characters fall into a bizzare series of events driven by coincidence that test thier moral fiber.

In "Fangs" we add a layer of supernatural--but more accurately a magical realism with So Cal flavor. But the film isn't about the lycanthropy or ganster edge so much as the daily struggles of working in a cubicle and surviving an undesirable marriage. This film was a perfect escape from my cubicle and it doesn't matter if you're gay, straight, Asian or Latin, we all want to escape the cubicle.

Sick of the humdrum world of Blockbuster entertainment, I stumbled across this rare gem on the recomendation of a friend. It was refreshing to discover a new, dynamic voice in the increasingly monotonous landscape of american cinema.
On what is obviously a modest budget, the filmmakers were able to tell an engaging and hip story, peopled with well-drawn, unconventional characters. There was dark subject matter, but it was off-set with just the right amount of macabre humor.
I'd recommend this film to anyone. Looking forward to more from Quentin and Justin.
