Hard Boiled Sweets (2012)

None too Sweet

It's hard to not compare British Mob movies to the work of Guy Ritchie, and with "Hard Boiled Sweets" it is almost impossible. The multiple characters scheming to obtain one item while constantly back stabbing each other, keeps films like "Snatch" on your mind throughout. There isn't really anything in this film that stands out. The plot is half-baked, the directing is mildly interesting, and the acting is bland, and some of it is downright bad. Overall this just isn't a film I could stand behind, or recommend.
