      Audience Member Released during the post- Lock Stock wave of British films who's marketing always seem to claim was ‘the best British Film of the year', Rancid Aluminium does have a great cast (also featuring Nick Moran, Keith Allen, and Tara Fitzgerald) and is shot well, but the film itself is pretty much all over the place, with a narrative voice over ty Rhys Ifans, the film tiptoes between a fairytale feel to a crime drama, but sadly not perfecting either. I remember watching the film upon its release onto DVD and VHS, and whilst I didn't hate the film (and still don't) it hardly lit my eyes and mind on fire. Does it deserve to be on the worst British films of all time list. I say no it doesn't, but its certainly not in danger of ending up on the best list either, but its a mad cap crazy film with a good cast, and a desire to grab the fans who craved more of the Guy Ritchie style filmmaking that lit up the UK cinema audience in 1998. with those Two Smoking Barrels. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the worst films ever made. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member No words for this one. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member One of two films (the other being FAT SLAGS) which define garbage to me, completely unwatchable. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member There's something quite Shakespearean about this enjoyable tale of dodgy international double dealing, sinister plotters, power and biological succession. Played for laughs and generally played very well by an excellent cast of mainly Brits. Oh, and in case we need more evidence that it's a Brit flick, they've even spelt the title right. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member The closest I have come to walking out of the cinema. I liked the book and thought they could do no wrong with the film. How wrong could I be? What is with the accents here?! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
