Same crew are making another true story called rise of the krays. But there is another movie about the kray twins called legend with Tom hardy. Both coming out this year. Don't know which version of both films would be better. Legend seems amazing and more beautiful with a dramatic feel. - @Saturday, May 16, 2015 12:12 PM

Really underrated film, thoroughly enjoyed it. I much prefer British films, makes a change from the usual romcom shit coming out of Hollywood. Pity this film didn't get more coverage in the USA. - @Monday, November 26, 2012 10:19 PM
