Stinks of London

4 years, 11 months ago at Jul 6 10:41

Rollo Tomasi

A relentlessly brutal early-nineties odyssey that is so real you can almost smell the stench of London's underbelly in each cell. David Thewlis is amazing as the anti-hero, Johnny. So much so I'll probably see him as this character no matter whom he plays from now on. Johnny's rants are worth the rental fee alone.

its just johnny ranting - very clever script and excellent use of language structure and arguments for and against most topics - but as a film - slow...

I cannot for the life of me understand all the 5 star reviews. This film comprises a rediculously unbelieveable script populated with unbelieveable, 2-dimensional, cliched characters and executed with heavy, wooden performances. Is this what happens when artistic folk conspire to create "gritty" and "real" drama. The total running time of nearly two and a half hours makes this ham-fisted effort al... read more

Johnny flees Manchester for London, to avoid a beating from the family of a girl he has raped. There he finds an old girlfriend, and spends some time homeless, spending much of his time ranting at strangers, and meeting characters in plights very much like his own.

Nihilism finally has a perfect film

“Most people have turning points in their life, moments where some event changed their perspective and made them different people. Whether it be trauma or success, heartbreak or love, most of us have moments like this. Because I am a socially awkward, late teen who hasn't done anything with his life yet, all of these moments for me have been experienced through movies. The most recent film to utterly destroy my previous perception of reality was the masterpiece "Naked", which stars David Thewlis, or as I knew previously, Professor Lupin. This film is probably the most nihilistic I have seen cinema go, with Thewlis pulling off sharp dialogue. The main character, Jack, is not always right about everything (in fact there's a scene where he talks about how the world is going to end in 1999) but” read more

"18/02/2013 Leighin käsikirjoitus kukoistaa ja dialogi pursuaa kukkaisia. Hahmot on kauttaaltaan kirjoitettu mahdototman hyvin, mutta suurin (anti)sankari koko touhussa on Johnny. Seksuaalinen väkivalta kuvottaa, mutta tästä huolimatta Johnnyyn ei voi olla tykästymästä. Rujo ja likainen ilme hurmaa ja kaikkea rakastaa."

"19.01. PC/TV, 1st viewing DIRECTED BY Mike Leigh Just a thoroughly engaging and entertaining film. A rapid fire of brilliant dialogue and David "Remus Lupin" Thewlis gives one powerhouse of a performance, essentially stealing every second he's in. Not that the film has a single boring character. This is cynical, black comedy mastered, pretty much. "
