| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonCox is laughing and enjoying all the twisted ridiculousness of it all. |
| Seattle TimesDoug KnoopProbably destined to join Cox's other films (Sid and Nancy, Repo Man) as a cult favorite. |
| User Reviewmaddi mfantastic adaptation, eccleston and izzard at their best. |
| User ReviewRiley HBrilliant interpretation of a classic. Eddie Izzard's finest role to date - eccleston's not bad either. Great cast. Cool music. Lots of skullduggery! A must see! |
| User ReviewHazel LLove this movie. Christopher Eccleston and Eddie Izzard both rocked in it (and though Derek Jacobi was a baddie, he also was amazing in it). And... Eccleston is pretty danged sexy in it too. |
| User ReviewKali BChristopher Eccleston and Eddie Izzard have THE MOST chemistry I've ever seen between two people on screen. |
| User ReviewLouise WWow. First off, go Eddie! Secondly, Christopher Eccleston has proved conclusively that he is a lunatic (or at least does an amazing job of pretending). Funny, angry, totally barking. What an awesome movie (and not like a hotdog). |
| User ReviewNathaniel LAn incredible play and an extremely interesting vision. |
| User ReviewGerda KI saw this a few days ago - thank you Netflix. Was interested b/c it features three of my favorite men - Alex Cox, Christopher Eccleston, and Eddie Izzard. I loved it, maybe Cox works better when he works with a very coherent script? The soundtrack was superb,and formed a great backdrop to Izzard in the back of the car. Would have loved some more blood and gore though. |
| User ReviewPrivate UAn excellent film of revenge, if you can find a copy, watch it. |
