Complete jerks


These flatmates are complete sociopathic jerks. Does Danny Boyle want us to feel sorry for them? Or are we supposed to sympathize with or laugh at their betrayal of each other and ultimate comeuppance? Because I did neither. Sorry, but in the end this film felt kind of pointless. The dialogue, editing and cinematography is great and there's obviously very strong talent in the cast, so it's a shame.

Completely agree, especially when interviewing.

I found at least one character to be sympathetic at any one time, not that a film necessarily needs sympathetic characters to be great - all the characters in Goodfellas are dicks.
