Yardie

Not my typical film choice but I thought i’d Give it a go.

And I was not disappointed!!!!!!!

The entire cast presented a hard-hitting story of gangsters, violence, drugs, murder, betrayal and most importantly revenge.

Every character was portrayed fantastically and I was sucked in from start to finish.

A great look at the gangster underworld which is still relevant today.

Well done Idris Elba!

I need a rewatch of this. I couldn't understand what was said most of the time because if the thick Jamaican accents.

I had the same problem, The Sparrow. I'm usually very good at being able to tune into accents but struggled in parts right to the end of the film. I don't know if I could watch it again though it was a good film.
Preferred cinemas: Best: Glasgow Quay, Glasgow Braehead, Glasgow Renfield Street, Glasgow Fort & Paisley
Others I'd go to: Glasgow Showcase Baillieston

I thought I'd rewatch yesterday but I was tired so not worth me trying. I've never had this problem for the duration of a film. A few words hear and there but not the whole film.
