London Evening Standard Everything about this supposedly raw exposé feels like yesterday's news. Rated: 1/5 May 21, 2010 Full Review Anthony Quinn Independent (UK) The plot, concerning the identity of a snuff-movie killer, is a gruesome mixture of sexual sadism and sentimentality, made even less palatable by dialogue of quarter-witted aggression. Rated: 1/5 May 21, 2010 Full Review Antonia Quirke Financial Times Awful -- bad acting, the worst kind of cockney clichés. Rated: 2/5 May 21, 2010 Full Review Allan Hunter Daily Express (UK) Tight close-ups and direct-to- camera confessionals are the order of the day in a film so peppered with sleazy sex, casual violence and endless swearing that it comes perilously close to caricature. Nobody's finest hour. Rated: 1/5 May 21, 2010 Full Review Trevor Johnston Radio Times The sight of Dyer operating under the delusion he's channelling Al Pacino is grim enough, but the real blame must be laid at the door of director/star/co-writer Cavanah, who seriously underperforms in all three roles. Rated: 1/5 May 21, 2010 Full Review Ellen E Jones Total Film You wouldn't think a film could actually be both very boring and very offensive. Pimp is that paradox made flesh Rated: 1/5 May 21, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Surprisingly entertaining. There was a month or two where I just really didn't want to see anything in theaters. Good dialogue, seemed definitely realistic except you could tell that it wasn't really hidden camera footage so I don't know why they added that to the dvd box. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty bad..they can't decide if the want it to be a documentary, a movie, or a plain interview. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Waste of time movie which I only watched because of Danny Dyer. Avoid at all costs! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Only ok, could have been so much more. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Its entertaining enough but not done very well. Good cast but not used to their full potential. It's a decent story but maybe a little farfetched. I do love a good cockney accent though and Danny Dyers is the best around =) Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Some will like some will hate, if you're like me and like British gangster with faces you expect to see then it's a good watch Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
