Solid movie. The gangsters had some views on honor that made it more interesting than other gangster films I've seen. I didn't find it boring at all, it kept changing continuously and it was suspenseful when it should've been. I'm a JamesSolid movie. The gangsters had some views on honor that made it more interesting than other gangster films I've seen. I didn't find it boring at all, it kept changing continuously and it was suspenseful when it should've been. I'm a James Franco fan but this might be the worst I've seen him and he was completely serviceable. Overall this is a tactically complicated story with an underwhelming couple as the main characters---but after all, they're supposed to be normal people with strange choices at hand. Expand

The combination of good people and bad money!

Much better film than I expected. Looks kind of a French thriller, but based on the novel of the same name. It revolves around a young American couple who moved to London, where they're on the verge to lose the inherited house after the severe debt. Luckily they find bundles of money from their dead renter. Since it was a bad money they wait for the right time to spend it, but what follows is their nightmare who ends up running away from the most dangerous men.

This is really a good story and a well made film, but I don't understand how it was so underrated. Obviously the critics did their job like usual, but the film fanatics turning it down as well which is a very sad. I know it feels so familiar, but very entertaining with lots of edgy moments. Especially the final battle between all the group at one place was very good, yet they kept it so simple. Both the lead actors were fantastic, including a small contribution by Tom Wilkinson.

It is a small story, that mostly takes place in a week. But the pace was excellent and it comes to the point without making any delay in the form of development. Yet there remains some mystery like how the guy died in the couple's rented apartment. Excluding those which only brings cliché if it goes deeper, the film definitely worth watching and I feel happy for watching a good thriller after a long time. So I recommended it.

7/10
