The TIC gang of south London escalates from selling small bags of weed to killing and robbing rival drug dealers. Gunz (Dylan Duffus ) is a mole in the group for the police.
Killing and shooting. Lots of Jamaican style talk and hip-hop music. Not much in character development.
Guide: F-word, sex, nudity.

You don't know my face
Style over substance
This film had more plot lines than swiss cheese, I could be wrong as I had to put subtitles on to follow but was he not recruited to infiltrate the TIC gang but only after did they call themselves TIC I could be wrong and I know I am not their target audience but it was pretty much incomprehensible. A lot of the film looked like a music promotional video, the acting was wooden and cliqued especially with the police. I can not follow if he was there to bring down the gang bingo after the first robbery and killing of the shopkeeper the under cover police man had them bang to rights. Instead they are allowed to continue to rob and murder and the ide that you give away free trainers and that makes it all right is reprehensible. You have to in most movies engage with the characters but they are all one dimension, not a great choice for a Saturday summed up by my wife "that was rubbish"
Nice effort but lacking in substance, confidence and any gravitas
The filmmakers and its crew at least have a base from which to start which isn't bad considering. Location fine, casting okay and story a bit too simple, but easy enough to execute. Flaws are no believable characters or characterization, so no real reason to love, loathe or like the TIC crew, the Police or the 'other lot'. Even the exceptionally snarling lead character wasn't NASTY enough, and no, "I don't know who the *#@$ he is" either. Script needed a shed-load of revising, as not even the POLICE in FIREMAN SAM, EASTENDERS or TELLY TUBBIES talk, behave or are briefed like that. "Morning officers..." err no! Could've and should've been tighter...but hopefully the mob behind this one will progress on to bigger and brighter things.
3/10 NICE EFFORT
