William Monahan delivers again. Good storyline, excellent execution.

Well acted. Excon tries desperately to stay out of the mob but keeps getting pulled back by a vicious mob boss.

Crap. Overkill in the bad language dept. A waste of the 20 minutes or so tolerated before turning it off.

This was a movie that mimicked some of Quentin Tarantino's moves (nostalgic music, etc.) but if you love to look at gorgeous blokes like Colin Farrell (ladies!) then by all means, enjoy! Not much screen time for Keira Knightly and kind of…

If you are a Colin Farrel fan, watch In Bruges instead. This was garbage. It is fun to see him beating the crap out of people, but that is all. Disgustingly useless female characters. No idea why Keira Knightley and Anna Friel would have…

Hokay. If you can suspend disbelief enough to accept that a star who has her face on billboards all over London falls in love with a criminal just out of prison, you might be able to swallow the next of a series of other suspensions of…

Pretty cast that you would think can get you a decent movie. Not in this case. Wasted talent. Movie is just nonsense.

An annoying British movie with no redeeming qualities!

Colin and Keira in one movie ... not bad at all. I like a film in which the Rotten Egg is smashed ... but that is not the ending you will get!

This wasn't the worst movie I've ever seen, it is far from being good. I fast forwarded a lot but not all the way. Just another shootem up bangem up move. Very predictable.

Good old story about a tough ex-convict tried to go straight but trapped in violence with past gangster associates. His fatal mistake was forgiving the killer of his best street friend ...

I'm not a big fan of gangster films, especially British, Guy Ritchie-esque, ones with their pervasive profanity and cold-blooded violence. This movie had the profanity and the violence, but I was drawn to the characters who were…

I enjoyed this hard-edged criminal vs. tougher criminal flick, from director/screenwriter William Monahan (The Departed, etc.). I did have to turn the subtitles on (lol) pretty early in the movie. Thick accents from some. I like Ray…

I felt the same exact way about this movie as I did about The Guard. It was in the same vein as say Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch or Layer Cake, but just didn't quite perform as well. Has a pretty twisted ending. I was just…

Good – London Boulevard (2010) 103 min. Enjoyable mob film with Colin Farrell matching wits with mob boss Ray Winstone. There’s a scene in a restaurant where the lines are drawn in the sand between the two that is pure classic film making.…

May have rated slightly better except that the dialogue was hard to follow at times (irish accents). Not terrible, nor was it real bad.
