The only people who complain about this movie on this comment board are
people who have some idea about what the Krays were really like and they
dislike the movie because it does parrot back at them ideas they already
hold. Well, I'd never heard of the Krays before I saw this movie and
I've never heard them mentioned in any other context since I saw this
movie, so ultimately, it really doesn't matter at all what the real
Krays were really like. To call this wondeful, creepy, scary,
entertaining and well observed movie "rubbish" is to fundamentally
misunderstand how movies work or what they are supposed to do. Stick to
the History Channel if all you want is history. And stick to
eavesdropping at Starbucks if you want to hear how people really talk.
If you want a dazzling exploration of psychic violence passed through
generations, and the creeping horror of living side-by-side with
homicidal maniacs who are strangely beloved by a hero-starved populace,
the watch The Kra
