Review of Layer Cake (2004) by Grant S — 04 Oct 2013
Great British gangster-drama. Good plot. May seem overly-complex at times, but it all makes sense quickly enough. Very original ending.
Direction by Matthew Vaughn is spot on - pacing is good and the intrigue is maintained throughout.
Excellent performance by Daniel Craig in the lead role. This would be one of the roles that got him the James Bond gig. Good support from Colm Meaney and George Harris. Supporting cast also includes Tom Hardy and Sienna Miller in early-career roles.
