Review of 44 Inch Chest (2009) by Matt C — 06 Feb 2011

An interesting central premise however unfortunately after 20mins you realise there's nothing else behind that and the filmmakers know it as well. An excellent supporting cast are unfortunately dominated by the awful central performance by Winstone as the cheated husband.

When he's not chewing the scenery he's wailing like a banshee and neither of these tactics are likely to have you captivated. At the point he asks his friends to leave the room and we enter his inner thoughts and conflicts, I'd advise you to click 'Eject' on your DVD player as it's basically laughable for the last half hour.
