Filth

I ventured out to the cinema for the first time in ages to see Filth. The first thing to say is that even though I enjoyed the film it will be a long time before I venture out to the cinema again. Plenty of people have said this before, but it is worth repeating in the hope that someone might notice eventually -

Piracy is not killing cinema : I don't go to the cinema very often because it is too expensive!

Right, back to the film. Filth is based on the book by Irvine Welsh and tells the story of a Scottish police detective with, shall we say, problems.

James McAvoy does a brilliant job of bringing Robertson alive, with wonderful support from the rest of the cast. The film buzzes along at a quick pace with plenty of sex scenes and set-piece gags to leave you in no doubt about the characters of the characters.

Don't watch this film and tell me you were shocked. If you are easily shocked then don't watch it. This is an Irvine Welsh story, do some research.

Very enjoyable film.
