A London tube driver considers pursuing a third fatal accident to collect a huge payout.

Liz Hoggard

London Evening Standard

The mystery is why some of Britain's finest character actors including Crook, Meaney, Antony Sher and Imelda Staunton got caught up in this mess.

Rare winning moments aside, Three and Out is unconvincing, uneven and unfunny: a severe points failure.

Rated: 2/5

Too gauche, too derivative and merely sporadically amusing.

There's no light at the end of the tunnel in this misguided romp whose solitary redeeming feature is its quality cast.

Rated: 2/5

Total Film

Ostensibly a black comedy, this Brit road movie engages most in its more reflective moments, focusing on characters' feelings of guilt, anger, sadness and regret.

Rated: 3/5

I found this movie in the £1 shop and bought it on a whim. It was around the time Gemma Arterton was in James Bond and the movie advertised as such. I genuinely really enjoyed it and think it's worth much more than a 17% rating. If you have an hour and half spare and want a bit of escapism I'd recommend this movie.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I loved Three and Out. Everything about it was so good. The performances were great especially from the lead actors: Mackenzie Crook, Imelda Staunton and Colm Meaney. Three and Out is very much a dark comedy and it is hilarious in places, but also tragic in others. The ending is absolutely heart-breaking. (SPOILER ALERT) I was praying that Tommy Cassidy would have changed his mind, yet after everything that has happened, he still wants Paul Callow to kill him, which he does. I also loved the setting of the film. As a Londoner myself, I know full well why Paul Callow wants to leave London. Everyone in London is horrible and the noise is unbearable.

Odd, not really a comedy, more a depressing film about suicide - on the upside, there were 2, Gemma Arterton

Three and Out really isn't a comedy, even a dark one, but I found it an interesting and well acted film, none-the -less.

Thought it would be a good one given it's imaginative story, but it ended up being a regular English comedy, with a typically unexpected ending for a English film.
