Review of The Long Good Friday (1980) by Brian S — 21 Feb 2010
The best British gangster film. Bob Hoskins in his true role as an East End villain, nothing fake. Not for the faint hearted and the spine chilling theme tune is a classic. Great speeches! Best one is when the yanks depart.
"Well Bob Voyage then!..I'm glad I found out in time what a partnership with a pair of wankers like you two would have been...." All films have their 'but' and for me the acting by Derek Thompson was not up to it.
His best moment was the lift scene with Helen Mirren..."I wanna lick every inch of you!"... Well worth a watch on a Sunday afternoon with decent glass of wine! ..........Enjoy!!!
