Catherine Shoard Guardian The script acts on the film as a rock does when strapped to a corpse, but there's a certain noirish sheen to the cinematography that means the whole thing slips down sweeter than it really ought. Rated: 2/5 Aug 9, 2012 Full Review David Jenkins Little White Lies The narrative switchbacks have been executed well enough, though it feels like soulless technical exercise rather than human story. Rated: 1/5 Aug 9, 2012 Full Review Daniel Green CineVue A weak, woefully written script does the film no favours at all, only to be further accentuated by a number of remarkably lacklustre performances. Rated: 1/5 Feb 2, 2019 Full Review Stephen Kelly Total Film Like a shoddily scripted student project, with a plot that meanders into inanity and characters so bafflingly banal that they may as well be made out of papier mache. Rated: 1/5 Aug 23, 2012 Full Review Philip French Observer (UK) Three writer-directors were needed to make it, which is probably better than having three films. Aug 12, 2012 Full Review Matthew Turner ViewLondon This is a disappointing British thriller that is probably best avoided, thanks to a poorly thought out script and unlikeable characters.

John C I know that not every British gangster flick should be measured against Guy Ritchie's work. And, to be fair, I Against I is nothing like Ritchie's work - in other words it's pretty awful. Whereas as Ritchie can make a complex narrative with numerous characters come together and let the viewer easily make sense out of it, I Against I just seems to want to play around with the narrative structure for the sake of it Basically, it's a jumbled mess. Again, the far superior Pulp Fiction moved beginning to end and vice versa and got away with it. Some films can do that. This one can't. Scenes seem to happen in random order, making it increasingly hard for the viewer to follow what's happening. Then there's the characters - who cares about them? They're not particularly likeable and the fact that the story's told out of order makes it hard to keep track of them. A low budget British gangster film without any major names attached to it was always going to be hard work. And indeed it was. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/28/24 Full Review Audience Member Frustratingly stupid characters. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh what a mess of a film!. Unlikeable cast with a poor script and plot. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Low-budget thriller that kind of captures a good mood using the evening of London's docklands area to good effect, but the other elements including the acting and story are not up to scratch. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Really disappointing gangster film. Main problem is the pace of the film and you have the feeling for the best part of wishing someone to get on with whatever it is they need to do. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Terrible Direction ruins the whole movie, the actors made it soulless and you can actully spot the twist a mile away. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
