Just seen the movie Layer Cake.   Not a bad brit movie.  Was pretty funny.

Sorta reminded me of the hon kong shoot em ups tho... neither country is supposed to have guns but their movies are non stop shooting...

Good line in the movie was the hero was in trouble and his friend says..  "yer gonna need one of these" and opens up the hidden cabinet with a crapload of handguns and a thompson sub gun...  The hero says "Oh crap, you know I frigging hate guns..... oh... that's a pretty one right there.."

Two things... if you know anything about guns... just ignore the gun stuff that is sure to irritate and...

Turn on english subtitles.  You won't understand half of what any of the characters are saying without the english subtitles... some of the characters speak a really bad british so you won't understand a word they say.

I'll check it out. It scored 7.4/10 on IMDB.

I see Jamie foreman is in it. He was in Nil By Mouth along with Ray Winstone. Two peas in a pod in sarf London - near where Chortle lives.

I saw it a while ago. Seen it a few times since. It's a good movie. The chick Sasha that's with The Duke has the worst accent in the whole movie. Sounds like a drunk retarded Brit.

beet... you need to see both "the searchers" and "the shootist"  both are movies that most people feel are good examples of Waynes best.

"The Searchers" may be the best western ever made, giving both sides of the struggle between settler and Native American in as fair a manner as was possible at the time of its' release.

John Wayne was his best as Gengis Kahn
