Majorthebys Charming and brutal

Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

adonis98-743-186503 When five prostitutes are found dead in their community, residents of London Road in Ipswich, Suffolk come together to process the events and revitalize the community. To be honest i didn't know what to except once i started watching this film but once random people started singing and making everything into a musical (even the news) i was just done with this film. The acting was garbage, the story has nothing to do with the murders but with a stupid community of people singing and turning everything into a damn song and for some reason Tom Hardy shows up? I guess he was there to collect his damn paycheck who knows really. This movie tho was weird, boring and pretty damn stupid. (0/10)

dcarsonhagy Perhaps people know something about film that I don't. Given these "10" ratings that I have seen, it leaves me even more perplexed as to how ANYONE could be entertained by this big old turd.Billed as starring Tom Hardy (one of my favorite actors), I caught this On Demand. Talk about false advertising... Mr. Hardy may frequent the screen for about TWO minutes. That's all you'll ever see of him. Instead what you get is a quasi "musical". Well, not really a musical as just so much of an ENTIRE movie delivered in sing-song style. That's how 99% of the dialogue is delivered. I thought this was a little odd, but after about five minutes of this s**t, it is like listening to nails across a chalkboard. Supposedly based on actual events, this mess is about actual murders of prostitutes on London Road in England. On Demand should be ashamed for advertising this film the way they do, but I guess anything to make a buck, huh?I absolutely despised this movie because I felt duped from the beginning. It stinks, plain and simple.

Hezekiah Pabico It's not really surprising how an experimental film like this got polarized reviews... The idea, like many said, to create a documentary musical about a real-life murder is absurd, but the execution for the film was great. Many negative reviews regarding London Road mainly criticized this film because this is "not something you should sing about" like bloody hell people, WE'RE IN THE 21ST CENTURY! But once you get past that, you should be able to view London Road without clouded judgement. There really are no standout numbers or standout performances, which is what makes it great, considering it's a musical film about community (not the murder itself, really). The music is complex, but once the ensemble sing as one, it sounds beautiful. The lyrics taken from recordings in real life may be a bit annoying, but they sound quite natural with the characters singing them. The direction, production design and cinematography also surpass many films from Hollywood. Of course, it is for the viewers to decide, but you can't judge it until you've watched it.

Paul Middleton This is a musical about murder. i think its twisted and sick. almost like its normalizing serial killers. its a very twisted idea.it starts like a documentary people sit down to talk to cameras. to talk about life on London road while these Ipswich murders took place. i think the people who made this film are very twisted. I cant imagine how the family's of these poor girls are going to feel about a celebration of there deaths. cause after all. music is a celebration of something. Usually music is a celebration of life, in a way they are celebrating the deaths of these poor girls. and the suffering of these poor familys.i don't find this innovative, it is astonishing and shocking. this is something that effected many peoples lives in a disturbing way. the whole of ipswich will have been effected by this. i think the last thing these people want right now is to create a musical about it. it is disrespectful and almost comes across like it is some kind of joke. you don't sing and dance about murder. these are real people real murders real peoples lives effected forever. mothers and daughters and fathers and sons. i think the whole idea is almost immature. let these people get on with there lives. i seriously don't think they will appreciate this movie whatsoever. a musical about there lost daughters. a musical about vicious nasty killings of 5 poor girls. i really doubt anyone singing about it in Ipswich. this movie is disrespectful in such an astonishing way. its horrendous.The Ipswich serial murders took place between 30 October and 10 December 2006, during which time the bodies of five murdered women were discovered at different locations near Ipswich, Suffolk, England. All the victims were women who worked as prostitutes in the Ipswich area. Their bodies were discovered naked, but there were no signs of sexual assault. Two of the victims, Anneli Alderton and Paula Clennell, were confirmed to have been killed by asphyxiation. A cause of death for the other victims, Gemma Adams, Tania Nicol and Annette Nicholls, was not established.
