The acting by everybody is Oscar winning performances and this is rare in the film industry. I have only seen it once and it's in this gem of a film.
It's one of those films you never want to end, it starts off immediately with a lightening pace and just gets faster. It distorts time. After 20 minutes I thought it had been on for an hour. The ending will make most men cry so make sure you're not with mates and get ready for the most psychedelic roller coaster since the film, Who Needs Enemies ... was made in 2013.
If you liked Scarface with Pachino, Goodfellas, Casino, The Godfather, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels combine all those films together and remember your enjoyment from each - now multiply it by 500.
It is that good. I don't have a Bluray player but I had to have one to own this film on Bluray and so I bought one - and I'm still waiting for it to be released on Bluray. I check most days for a sign of a Bluray release. If I was going to take to a desert island the biggest DVD collection in history OR the single film called Who Needs Enemies, there would be no contest. This one film is what I would take and packed between two pillows in case it gets damaged.
This reminds me. The DVD is so valuable I bought another copy just in case one gets damaged. Somebody tried to watch my DVD without asking and I have not spoke to them since, everybody knows not go near my Who Needs Enemies DVD.
score 10/10
