Review of Legend (2015) by Ant S — 15 Sep 2015

A little bit of hard work but ultimately well acted. Tom Hardy is great, not superb, as both roles and you can tell the two characters apart throughout the film but this is helped more by Ron's bottom teeth prosthetic rather than Tom's acting.

The story is fairly slow but this does help the film more than just rushing through gangster set pieces. The violence and swearing in it feels real and visceral (even if they use the C word around 15 times).

The ending felt justified and made me feel that I hadn't wasted 2 hours even though I was ready for the conclusion about 20 minutes before it ended.
