| The PlaylistJessica Kiang...[it's] so obnoxiously convinced of both its edginess and depth while doing nothing but trotting out the same Cockney gangster cliches we've seen done better twenty times elsewhere... |
| Little White LiesSophie Monks KaufmanA progressive reinvention of a tired genre. |
| Time OutDave CalhounA film that leans on more crime-movie clichés than anyone involved would probably admit. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawThis is an accomplished debut from Hulme, who is a film-making force to be reckoned with. |
| Radio TimesDamon WiseThe film's subtle, underlying air of menace is nicely sustained throughout. |
| Empire MagazineAnna SmithNot just another gritty London crime drama, this is compelling and credible with a convincing star turn from Frederick Schmidt. |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterThere are a number of promising elements here, including the performance of Aymen Hamdouchi as Dave's best mate Tariq, but the film is flashy, uneven and shallow. |
| Observer (UK)Mark KermodeParanoid sound design and woozy atmospherics accentuate the film's more experimental aspects. |
| The Big IssueEdward LawrensonHulmes' film is intelligent and original, a debut of promise. |
| Film-Forward.comKent TurnerMuch of the exposition is so redundant that a viewer might think it's accidental that the film subtly implies that a xenophobic, white Londoner would find direction and peace in Islam. |
