About this movie

The early years of the most notorious criminals Britain has ever produced are portrayed in visceral brutality in 'Rise of the Krays'. London, 1961: Ronnie and Reggie Kray begin a reign of terror that would endure and define London’s East End for years to come. From protection rackets to members' clubs, from brutal street brawls, arson via blackmail extending all the way up to the Cabinet Office, the Krays rained red on anyone who crossed them. 'Rise of the Krays' pulls no punches in its bid to portray the true horror of this violent pair. Where other cameras pull away, 'Rise of the Krays' maintains its nerve. The question is, can you?

Ratings and reviews

interesting choice of film by David Sullivan, as he would have been aware of their influence, despite incarceration, when he made his fortune. Guess its some sort of tribute and the period detail is excellent - just that personally i can't take either the cast or cliche ridden dialogue as a realistic portrayal of the later age of the serious men /old school villain and their mores, close knit culture and serious capacity for violence - both 'reasoned' and irrational episodic.

One thing a family relative must never do gift a child belief they are able to hold onto entrust and grow badly into lifestyle. One thing a child must never do gift a English teacher and an interesting word that will make them and alike the teaching itself. London received reptiles.

Well have not seen this done in a long time you only get half the movie it suddenly stops and says there return in fall of the krays so you have to pay twice for this more what a rip. Off other then that was an OK start
