The Fall of the Krays

What is it about the name "Kray" that causes so many actors to forget all the basic skills of their craft and to switch into "wanna be gangster" mode. The overacting here was embarrassing. Avoid. Actually, the Tom Hardy version was indeed pretty good, which makes this version so awful by comparison.

You have to treat it as a normal drama becaujse there are so many mistakes. Most of the mistakes are with Policeeprocedure. The long haired 'Nipper Read' is not very nipperish and lacks gravitas. He even gets the Police caution wrong and it sounds like something you might hear in an US crime drama/ One of the Police officers handcuiffed to one of the brothers should have retired 20 years ago. IN any case prisoners from the court are in the custody of the prison service, not the police. The senior Police uniform was wrong as was the name of the rank. Reed's elite squad looked all wrong. Reed would not be allowed to conduct an identity parade. I have forgotten the other mistakes.

Very poor movie , both acting and story are very amateur , but when it is vying with tom hardy and the kemp brothers performances it really has to be a little special and sadly its not

Luckily I only watched the first 20 minutes as I couldn't endure anymore. Absolute garbage, everyone involved in this film should be ashamed. Hope the lead actors give up their actinf careers as they couldn't act even if their lives depended on it.

The highlight is Simon Cotton's horrendous acting. Worth watching just to be amused by all the poor acting.

Beginning in the year Ron's hero Winston Churchill died. Like 'The Godfather', this second leisurely instalment of vintage cars, sharp suits, psycho violence and designer swearing starts with a wedding and is suffused with a warm nostalgic glow while the Krays despatch George Cornell, Jack 'the Hat' McVittie and sundry other hoods, before (SPOILER COMING:) nemesis eventually arrives in the form of superintendent 'Nipper' Read and society finally gets it's well-earned rest from the gruesome twosome's activities (in what we are told was "the longest criminal trial in English legal history", but which is here disposed of remarkably swiftly after such a lengthy build-up).

Worth a watch, the actors were a bit young and goofy to play the kray twins, but the story was accurate enough.

I feel for the audience. A shambles from start to finish ive seen better children's pantomimes than this horrendous peace of garbage.

I never like giving a low score to a film, but after watching this I don't really see how I can possibly grade it any higher then a four. I'll start with the positives, in terms of period detail, it looked really good, the clothes, the cars, I felt they did a fairly good job at capturing the atmosphere of the era. Sadly the film never engaged me, I've read some of the books on The Krays, and at no point did I feel the two leads I was watching in this were the Kray Brothers, firstly appearance, I know you can't expecting a perfect likeness, but they just seemed a little off. In terms of them as characters, that is where I had main issues, possibly it would have worked better as an independent film, nothing to do with the Krays. I felt Simon Cotton did a slightly better job in the role of Ronnie, but only marginally. Compared to Tom Hardy's film, it's quite a pale comparison, overall a poor follow up to an average opener. 4/10
