"A relentlessly brutal early-nineties odyssey that is so real you can almost smell the stench of London's underbelly in each cell. David Thewlis is amazing as the anti-hero, Johnny. So much so I'll probably see him as this character no matter whom he plays on future watches. Johnny's rants are worth the rental fee alone. "

"The willfully nasty Johnny ,goes on a journey of self-debasement ..full of pretention ,but with an undeniable wit under an armoured shell of spite..Johhny lays waste to all in his path.Ridiculing and emotionally crushing those he encounters,it is only when he is attacked physically that we feel any sympathy.When his cleverness wont help. By the end,he has blended in with the misfits,the damaged goods he has encountered.Along with this excoriating narrative,Mike Leigh unnacountably includes a ludicrously daft "posh" character plot-line,that seems from a different film altogether.He does this (thankfully) briefly,again in "Happy Go Lucky". Introducing a comically "dangerous" element ..He needs a better editor. "

"Domestic bliss,of a sort,as portrayed by Mike Leigh's ensemble...Jane Horrocks ("bollox") is fantastic as a bulemic/anorexic..the scenes between her and "mother" Alison Steadman are some of the most moving ever.David Thewlis gives us a taste (chocolate flavour) of the mercurial character he will portray in "Naked" Timothy Spall,with his new "cosmopolitan" restaurant,and his "orfapeedic" bed are just plain hilarious.Everything is undercut by a melancholy that will take you back to the tribulations of "growing up"...Leigh has recently kind-of returned to this fertile territory with Happy Go Lucky "

"I heard David O' Russell (perhaps that is spelled incorrectly) say that I Heart Huckabees was the first truly existential motion picture ever made. First of all, he is a hack. Second of all, he has obviously never seen this picture. This movie is so completely phenomenal, that it will actually make you want to to punch David Thewlis in the face. God! What an exquisite performance!!! I believe this is only the second film, behine Barton Fink, to win the 3 biggest prizes at Cannes ( Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Actor). GOOD STUFF!! DO NOT MISS IT!!! "
