"London Boulevard" is the story of a man newly released from prison who falls in love with a reclusive young movie star and finds himself in a duel with a vicious gangster..
This was a welcomed surprise. I'm not a big Ferrel fan especially after In Bruges, but this was a well acted and well paced movie with interesting characters.
i liked it, its a good movie, yanks want to see lots of rambo style junk, this is british and like in europe its done with more style :) good film and good acting. 8/10
Brilliant movie, for those who dont get it i feel sorry for you.its not complicated!!!Great acting and very gritty. Should not be compared to departed. Gangster life is totally different in the uk. both movies are great but very different. WATCH THIS!!!
You can guarantee if there's one area of the current employment sector which continually flouts the rules of a recession, it's the underworld London East End gangster. William Monahan's (screenplays for 'The Departed' and 'Body of Lies') directorial debut is an adaptation of Ken Bruen's 2001 novel 'London Boulevard' about a criminal who after being released from prison, attempts to go 'straight,' but despite his attempts, he can never truly escape his violent past. It's not a perfect film by any means, but capable direction, and solid performances from a primarily solid British and Irish cast, create a competent directorial debut for Monahan.
Mitchell (Colin Farrell) has just been released from Pentonville after a three year sentence for assault, when he exits the prison he is picked up by long-time partner in crime, and local enforcer, Billy (Ben Chaplin), who takes Mitchell to a party in his honour. Every East End drug dealing gangster is there to shake the hand of one of the most feared men in London, but all Mitchell wants is to get a job, and avoid being restricted to a sixteen by eight cell again. He manages to convince a beautiful, reclusive actress (Keira Knightly) and her pot-smoking-hippy-esquire-father-figure Jordan (David Thewlis) to hire him as a handyman around their paparazzi infested estate. But when the leading figure in the London underworld, Mr Gant (Ray Winstone) comes looking to place Mitchell high up in his crime organization, he must find a way to refuse the advances of such a dangerous man, while also protecting those closest to him.
For the first ten-to-fifteen minutes of the film, Colin Farrell's forced middle-class cockney accent takes centre stage, but once he settles into the role, his performance takes limelight as a sociopathic criminal with somewhat of a heart. His brash use of violence, and utter respect and protection of friends, family and confidants, provides a conflict within Mitchell that he constantly battles throughout the film. The only thing he knows what to do is enforce, and if he was a true gangster he would "kill everyone and take everything they had," but at the same time, the last thing he wants in his life is to return to that desolate hole known as prison. Aside from Farrell, both David Thewlis and Ben Chaplin give great performances as the hippy, wannabe actor and scared, low-level gangster respectively. While Anne Friel also plays the thieving, stubborn, childish sister of Mitchell's very well. Yet while Ray Winstone never puts a foot wrong, his role as the Underworld Godfather has become rather predictable and uninteresting, especially since every other word out of his Landan mouth is either f**k or c**t (or a combination of both). Monahan really missed a trick, by failing to provide Winstone's character with any further depth.
Also beside the main story as Mitchell battles his growing love for the reclusive actress and the life of a straight man alongside that of his violent past, and potential gangster future, is the sub-plot of Mitchell's old homeless friend Joe (Alan Williams) who is killed ruthlessly by a couple of youths and Mitchell's subsequent attempts to find out who is responsible. While it is an adequate underlying story to accompany the main narrative, neither Monahan's direction nor his screenplay seem to follow it to any decisive conclusion. It seems if anything, if this sub-plot is simply included to allow the subversion of the ending and provide a twist or surprise ending, which the film itself certainly does not need. 'London Boulevard' is a proficient first effort for Monahan, and while the film contains flaws, which you expect from a first-time director plying his trade, it is also an engaging gangster drama which is smartly written, and incredibly well-acted by many of the great British and Irish actors at the moment.
Was that really necessary or do you just like the sound of your own presentations.? You have absolutely ruined this movie for anyone else who perhaps would have liked to watch it unpredjudiced.
I watched it again just to evaluate it one more time. Once again, I enjoyed it. Good acting. However, I do agree that Keira Knightly was a little off. Probably nervous working with Colin Farrel. I could not work with him. I would be too nervous to really be able to get into my character. So, no fault of hers. The director is responsible for the actor's performances. He can make them redo the scene until they get it right. I still like her as an actress and liked this movie.
Colin Farrell is cool, I half expected it to be like 'In Bruges' which would of been sweet. unfortunately it wasn't. Anna Friel was so fricking dirty and sexy in this movie. Keira Knightley sucks. I can see the instant appeal but her voice is so annoying to listen to, she is generally very irritating. I couldn't feel any chemistry between Knightley and Farrell. this story was easy to follow but uninteresting and you don't know what kind of movie its trying to be. its not lock stock, its not Harry Brown its just a bit shit. London is the true star of this Movie but still failed to deliver. thank god I live there and just have to go outside to find a more interesting and realistic story. I rate this movie as boring as fcuk. but what do I know. David Thewlis was good. Ray Winstones become nothing more than a grizzly wanker. playing the stereotypical London hard man. bollox. should of been Michael Gambon. Gary Oldman. someone, anyone other.
Departed was based on Whitey Bulger and he actually lived and has never been caught. Although, in that he dies at the end but Colin Farell was more the hero in this. Anyways, its different in so many ways besides being about gangsters. You might as well say it's like Goodfellas. However, it was very slow paced and not a lot of action. 4.5/10.
The movie was entertaining as a movie is supposed to be. The Departed was about cooked cops and gangsters. This movie only has one crooked cop and you only see him 3 times for a few seconds. As far as what does it mean? Give me a break, you probably believe in fate and destiny too don't you. Lets see, don't pass up a good chance you might regret later.
