The Filth
If you
thought cops in your country was bad, check this out. This is a British movie
about a crooked cop who competing with other cops for his promotion, while a
murder investigation taking place. He
goes on a path sabotaging his friends competing for a Job and general being a
dirty rotten bastards. Well while trying to catch some killers. He crooked at a
level that makes Vick Mackey look he works in Mayberry. He really surprise they
made a film that follows someone that that much a piece of shit. This is not a
complaint. He is an interesting piece of shit that makes you go “You know what
it smells but got a unique smell to it “This cop is a druggy, a Jerk, a
sociopath, and sex maniac. The Humor very dark but it gives an out there feel
where you enjoy the ride. It also makes the main character funny enough where
you go with him…somewhat and drops hints of sympathy. You just want to see what
happens to him. That said he does do some horrible things where you loses him. He
is not all fun and games. He is a scary mother F’er at times. So he probably
goes to lose you at some point in the movie. But that when they heap stuff on
him and you see WHY he this way that makes you want to follow him to figure it
out. You start to pity him. Also the
people he going after is worst. Although he does it half ass like as possible.
There is a change and tone that little unbalance. It gets REAL DARK and serious
as the movie goes on. So it kind of a sudden Jarring switch. Thought it manage
to still be off the wall during that seriousness. Also some of the people he tricking come of a
little too dumb or push over’s. He so obviously a lunatic...you surprise how he
able to pull one over on them. You wonder how this dude remains on the Job in
the first place. All through the movie it’s still a good ride. It goes by fast
and pace well. It’s a unique, interesting,
fun, wild, drug fuel ride B+
