Surprisingly dated and mostly boring heist flick, barely saved by some occasional visual flourishes. As for Kingsley's performance, I seriously don't see what's so great about it, let alone why Winstone lets him walk all over him when he could easily snap his bones like Twiglets. It literally felt like watching Gilbert Gottfried shit all over Tony Soprano for over an hour. Skip it, sugar. Or don't, you know, I don't give a fuck.

the cult of masculinity -- of posturing, gimmicky gangster movies -- undercut at every turn, exposed as a fragile front behind which lies refreshingly genuine familial love/worry, regret, loneliness, economic struggle, repressed homosexuality. no surprise that glazer's started to make waves; some very expressionistic sequences and compositions, smart juxtapositions, creative temporal interspersions.

Worth watching for the lead performances. Ray Winstone, Ben Kingsley and Ian McShane are all marvelously entertaining, but the rest of the film is a bit too dry and predictable. It really feels like a waste, because outside of the outstanding leads and a great start, the movie runs out of steam and just has no energy to it. This has legendary potential, but the final product is just good enough to be worthwhile. Maybe I just expected too much.

This starts out a bit cheesy, but the music was good, the production quality was good & there was a lovely women or two. Then for the next 50% of the movie we are subjected to a crap load of retarded mobster posturing with Ben Kingsley playing a psychopathic nut job. Following that is a robbery that was sketchy at best. The ending was somewhat tense. I really can't recommend this movie, since I found most of it to be quite annoying.

A little more unusual, stylish and maybe even substantial than your average gangster film. Kingsley is, as everyone agrees, bombastic, Glazer's snappy MTV visual chops are quite delightful and the structure is rather odd for a genre picture. It may not add up to much (although the tasty final eye wink sure tries to convince otherwise) but it's still sturdy and smart entertainment.

About an half of a movie, as long as you do not know what's going on, this is very hilarious thing. Unfortuantely what's going to be is not that hard to guess, and the latter part of the movie is just hit by bus disappointment. Empty story like sunbathing in Spain. And the title of the movie is as empty as the story itself.

This film definitely lacks some polish and the third act falls a little flat. But the two leads--Don and Gal--are such great characters. Don especially is one that will stick with me. Ben Kingsley delivers a terrific performance of a believable psychopath whose insecurities are bubbling just below the surface. "I won't let you be happy, why should I?"

Pretty overrated Brit crime caper. The acting is average but the characters (who are all fat middle aged flush faced old men) are not interesting nor are they believable. Ben Kingsley is probably the only standout actor in this but even he seems like he's just trying to put in a suitable performance to get the job done.

Sexy Beast has a refreshing eye for the absurd, and some crisp dialogue that manages to be funny and horrifying at the same time - yet there is not much substance underneath its colorful surface. No matter, since Ben Kingsley, who embraces manic tourette's like it's the fabric that holds the universe together, makes the movie all the better despite its obvious shortcomings.

Middling crime drama works best in its early stages, pitting Winstone's dazed veteran gangster against Kingsley's ferocious pitbull, but the film's arch and artificial tone creates a cold, ironic distance from its tale and its characters, which ultimately leads to a deadly lack of energy and "stakes" during the third act bank robbery; its sudden loss of a major player is also a rug-pull which doesn't provide a satisfactory return. Beautifully shot (especially at the gorgeous Spanish villa!)

The reason I started watching Deadwood. Kingsley is obviously the star - I regularly think "I'm sweatin' like a cunt" when it's hot out - but McShane is at the peak of his powers here in less than ten minutes of screen time. I do have to admit though that the heist itself is disappointing.

No no no no no no no no no no! Daniel Bryan from the WWE probably got his catch phrase from Ben Kingsley in this movie. Kingsley is pretty much the only reason to watch this movie. Ian mcshane is a nice throw in. Ray winstone is usually good, he just doesn't have much to do in this role. What he does have though is done well and believably.

Okay then. I sort of understand the comparisons to Ritchie's early British crime capers, but outside of Kingsley the entertainment value in Sexy Beast is nonexistent. Ray Winstone's best moment is the freeze frame on the opening title; after that he sits there on the screen like this reluctant gelatin. Some good concepts sprinkled throughout, but I think the film simply suffers from a bad story.

A Film about precious little really, other than one mans attempt to leave his past behind him, but nevertheless a film that is scripted, acted, edited and scored with such flair, power and energy that that hardly matters. The viewer is drawn in as if they are a participant, and the feeling of dread is palpable. The key to this is Ray Winstone who is simply fantastic in the lead role, having the ability to make us fall in love with his character to the point where we REALLY care about him.

In the unit where I used to live about half a decade ago, there was a guy across the hall who ticked every box on the psychopathy checklist. The lucky ones among us have never met anybody like this person, but I guess I was one of the unlucky ones. I could go on all day about any number of the horrible things I overheard or heard about from others or had to endure myself, but you only need to watch Ben Kingsley in this movie, because he is that guy.

Stylish as hell, even if there's not tons of substance. Kingsley, Winstone and McShane are killer, and make this material more compelling than it otherwise would've been. However, the script isn't without its merits; it manages to twist and turn and reveal a few nifty surprises, while balancing a sense of cool with surprising humor. Very, very enjoyable.

The comparisons to "Lock, Stock" and their ilk do this great little film a disservice - the stylistic flair shown here actually serves a purpose: to get into the minds of the characters, the cross-cutting between the underwater heist and the climactic confrontation being a good example. Would make a nice double bill with "The Hit".

(Rewatch) Well this isn't nearly as bad as i remember it, but it's still easily Glazer's least accomplished film, mostly because he hasn't seemed to have grown out his music video/advertisement tendencies. The film is stylish, but not in the way his later films are (there's only the barest trace of the Kubrick fixation here). Instead what you have is basically an artier Guy Ritchie movie. Kingsley's part is pretty impressive and entertaining enough, but the whole heist bit is pretty useless.

I didn't much care for this when I first saw it, but a decade later (and me a decade wiser) I definitely see what it has to offer as a portrait of human behavior, using the gangster-thriller genre not for vicarious excitement so much as empathetic suspense as Gal tries to get through his predicament alive. Kingsley's rage, McShane's sociopathy, and Winstone's earnest charm vividly illuminate different points on the spectrum of hoodlum humanity.

Some fantastic montage sequences - the underwater heist intercut with flashes of brutality and violence is the essence of visceral cinema. The recurring image of the beast is ideal symbolism, representing a few possible manifestations as well as mere nightmare and fear. However, it cannot help but feel dated, like the many Tarantino-inspired, dialogue-heavy capers of this time. Luckily there's some talented actors in front of the camera, and a smart director behind it.

An exercise in tension building at first, and it indulges in that a little too much, plus the overall story and characterisation are lightweight enough to make this feel televisual. Yet it's got an brilliant trifecta of top-banana acting, writing, and direction -- looks great, utilises some nifty music-video-esque techniques, and the acting makes the best out of a shining screenplay. Kingsley is a right cunt in this.

A highly unique take on British gangster dramas that makes palpable the helplessness of its protagonist in the face of unstoppable forces. Glazer is singular in his form, and Kingsley is nothing short of perfect. The final act somewhat struggles to maintain the film's nightmarish sensibilities, but it doesn't terribly hamper the brilliance of the first two acts.

A modest and character-driven crime/heist film, with a lot of long dialogue passages and very small yet tense moments of action, delivered with a great sense of twisted humor but a somewhat believable and grounded setting. Obviously this is a bit of a showcase for Ray Winstone and Ben Kingsley, but the focused, small cast is excellent, and the slightly trippy elements of the film work alright, though the budget of the film shows during these sequences and can come off a bit forced because of it.

My favorite thing about this movie is that British critics, exhausted from the onslaught of crime movies following LOCK, STOCK, TWO SMOKING BARRELS, totally missed the boat while us Yanks recognized this was something new and exciting. Still, 17 years later, the film is overwhelmed by Ben Kingsley's novel but incredible performance and will be remembered mostly as a calling card for Glazer who would move on to even more interesting and adventurous projects.

Without Sir Ben, this movie gets about a 55. He's that good. Winstone was decent. The first 30 minutes of the film loans to a productive build-up. I was bummed with the last act. I understand why it's supposed to hold the ultimate tension, but after Kingsley was canceled, it immediately loses power and threatens to lose it's audience. Kingsley shows off range.

a strange title but a good film about a man being pulled in a direction he really doesnt want to go in. Lashings of genuine menace & an eye opening performance by Kingsley

Gruff, shouty escapism. Gather a big draw is hearing Kingsley drop the C bomb and so on.

This is an average film made better by a really good performance by Ben Kingsley. The script has some interesting moments and some boring parts. Overall I would recommend this film.

True, Kingsley does steal the show, but the film would have worked well enough without him. It's a bit chaotic in the structure of the story and often times it does not have any logical cohesion, but it works surprisingly well in its bizarre quirkiness. It's a damn decent modern take on Pulp Fiction.

Stylish, slightly surreal gangster film - the scenes in Spain are particularly enjoyable.

Forget the weak story, watch this for Kingsley, Winstone, and McShane.

A misleading title, except perhaps in tone, for a British caper picture that perches on or near the same edgy edge as Guy Ritchie's _Snatch_ and _Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels_. A gagster's gangster film. The big difference, however, between Glazer's debut film and either of Ritchie's is -- highly subjective criterion -- that when it tries to be funny it actually succeeds. Not all the time. But regularly. Judiciously. Ungreedily.

SEXY BEAST is well made and unique, with a fantastic, very quotable script full of dark humour, and is vulgar and brutal, but riveting, with weird touches like the boulder in the swimming pool and Gal's bizarre visions making it all the more memorable. The best thing about it, though, is the acting, particularly from Ben Kingsley as the frightening Don Logan. His performance is over-the-top in the best possible way, and is completely unlike anything else I've seen from him.
