Danny Boyle’s feature film directorial debut is a sly, sinister crime thriller about three close friends who discover their new roommate’s dead body, along with a suitcase full of cash. Faced with a moral dilemma, the trio agrees to dispose of the corpse and keep the money — a decision which leads them on a haunting journey that will test the limits of trust, loyalty, paranoia and greed.

Critics Consensus: This black-humored thriller features characters who are more obnoxious than clever. During the second half, the movie descends into gratuitous violence.

Reviews

Radio Times

Adrian Turner

Boyle's film bursts with energy and springs some deliciously macabre surprises, and he is rewarded with wonderful performances from Ewan McGregor, Christopher Eccleston and Kerry Fox, whose characters are all outwardly ordinary yet inwardly strange.

From the moment those electronic beats of Leftield start pounding on the soundtrack and Boyle’s camera begins racing around the cobbled streets of Edinburgh, the film announces itself as a propulsive thrill ride.

A sour treat.

It presents a funny comedy that shifts into a bleakly amusing criminal caper, before descending into what is more or less a home invasion thriller.
