Starred Up (2013)

Starred Up (2013)

“Underrated” in the sense of “underseen, and therefore underappreciated.”

Jack O’Connell is borderline feral in this gem, reminiscent of Tom Hardy is “Bronson”.

Also like Hardy in “Bronson”, he hangs dong. I share this both because it caught me off guard, and simply because I know it will push more than one of you to actually go watch it.

Which you should anyways, because it’s excellent. But yeah enjoy the dong if that’s your thing.

Dragged Across Concrete (2018)

First time viewer after recommends from this sub. Im from the 80s, and this is highly competent writing, filmmaking, and grit.

I miss this type of big swing crime drama. It really gives a lot of space for small moments amidst heavy carnage.
