A Brilliant Conflict
Whitech
It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Took me a while to decide to watch this series, I normally shy away from intense violence on screen. However, I do not regret for a second watching it. Powerful and heart wrenching tale. Beautifully directed and produced. Incredible performances by the whole cast. It'll stay with me for a long time.

This show is more than OK, but it's impossible to take your eyes off Tom Hardy. He becomes Freddie so much that he becomes unattractive. That seems an impossibility in itself, but it's not the first time Tom Hardy has made me disgusted in his character. I had to constantly remind myself I was watching Tom Hardy, the actor, during Bronson and Warrior. He completely transforms. I would hate to act alongside the guy. He truly is a one-in-a-million that comes along once in a lifetime. My parents had Brando. Hollywood is being flooded by a tsunami of English talent, and Tom Hardy is surfing it naked.

After leaving prison Freddie hopes to take over the criminal empire of his boss, Ozzy. However, Freddie's hot temper is his biggest enemy. His cousin, Jimmy however, is smart and a born businessman, who quickly becomes Ozzy's favourite....While Freddie is left on the outside. The story also focuses on the women in Freddie and Jimmy's life.The show incorporates some wonderful characters and the actors give some amazing performances, especially Tom Hardy who is sublime as the menacing psychopath, Freddie; it is all in his voice and how he seems to stare into ones soul. What's even more brilliant is that the story never ceases to become boring, it is always tense and powerful.

Brilliant, what can I say most novel TV adaptations suck but this and along with another prize winning adaption, the Red Riding Trilogy they both have brought British Drama back with a vengeance that could rival the Americans for the title. In regards to the American counterparts with their crime Dramas, we as British always have darker tales because we do not skimp on detail or grit and thats what is definitely not skimped on in The Take.Dark, gritty, heartbreaking even TEAR JERKING with a really sad experience for all women, and an even sadder consequence of it. The Take gives Britain a stepping stone just as Red Riding did that we can make good television. The only other programmes I can think that gives us this grittiness, would be Red Riding by a land mile and the likes of Murphy's Law, Cracker and Wire In The Blood. Brilliant TV with a great cast, not much more could be said for Brian Cox, a great actor but with perfect performance by Tom Hardy and Shaun Evans this adaption was only made even better. A great supporting cast too with Charlotte Riley and Kierston Wareing, who prove they can really give outstanding performances. Great TV that we all want more of.
