Pretty good debut from Danny Boyle, he’d already found his style here and I’d argue he’s the main attraction of the film. Technically it’s obviously not as impressive as some of his later work (e.g. the lighting during the night scenes is too bright) but the kinetic filmmaking does a lot to elevate a by the numbers script. It’s not a bad screenplay, but it leans more towards the predictable/familiar side, especially if you’ve already seen films like _Rope_ or _A Simple Plan_. Again, it’s the presentation that makes this film special for me. It also has some performances from the three leads who are all playing unlikeable characters; quite unlike anything I’ve seen McGregor play after this.

7/10
