The Mother the Son the Rat and the Gun

Started out strong but lost momentum very quickly .

The movie starts out with the leader of a crime family getting snuffed out on a golf course by a hitman and we see his widow step up to take the reigns of his criminal empire with the help of her son but it soon becomes clear that she bit off more than she can chew and struggles to keep everything and everyone in line.

Though the cast is very strong but the plot unfortunately isn't. It's a very predictable story and its twist reveals its hand way too early in the film which makes the last act boring and it dragged really bad towards its unsatisfying end.

Something that bothered me though Not sure if they were tributing reservoir dogs or just ripping a huge part of it off completely but its all i could think about during some scenes.

Overall its a watchable film very solid in parts and the actors really do shine but it's no classic though and will be forgotten very quickly among all of the other of the U. K''s attempts to make the perfect gangster movie.
