Ratings and reviews

16:52- a foul tasting mess. Some times you take good ingredients and put them together, spend all that time stirring them, whisking them, then putting then in the oven and out comes a 5hit cake!! Inheritance is like that. Its got a good caste of British Actors, Reggie from Dear White People and a plot thats not all that bad. Poor direction and editing result in a disappointment that by close to the first 17 minutes you realise the first two bites of 5hit cake are , well, just 5hit and it will not taste any better till the end. If you are looking for entertainment- give this one a miss, If you are a movie and media student and this is your assignment - well get the eyedrops , the eyelid retractors and keep on watching. Keep a defibrillator near by.

Tediously boring with a predictable and dull plot. The actors tried hard but nothing was going to work as this just isn't a tale worth telling. Your left confused by the actions of the characters and their decisions as the film devolves into nonsensical drivel. Even in a bargain bin, this film should be avoided.

The story plot is so far-fetched that doesn't make any sense from start to finish. It's shame: two brilliant actors, Lily Collins and Simon Pegg, completely wasted.
