For the Brits. I saw both in the past few months.... I liked Layer Cake. Didnt see the big deal with Sexy Beast..
I might have to give "Layer Cake" another watch. I know it's supposed to be Daniel Craigs breakthrough movie, but it didn't leave a lasting impression on me at all. "Sexy Beast" is one of my all-time favorites.
Sexy Beast has some great quotes and good acting by Ben Kingsley. Layer Cake I don't remember much about.
Sexy Beast is a bit like one of those movies that comes along every 5 years or so that becomes an instant 'classic' with British 'geezers' who don't know much about or watch many movies....Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, Love, Honour & Obey, Snatch and these two 'Geezer Cinema'
Exactly It's a decent film but I've seen geezers and blokes call it a great film and even one of the greatest films ever made Proper wanks
That's what I meant. I had heard it hyped to such epic proportions that I was letdown when it turned out to be just "decent."
