Ben Kingsley is unforgettably menacing as "the anti-Gandhi," delivering an amazing, fierce performance in this high-voltage film that crackles with style and wit. When sociopathic gangster Don Logan (Kingsley) tries to recruit an ex-partner in crime (Ray Winstone) for a high-stakes heist back in London, the retired criminal refuses, favoring the legit life after serving a prison term. But Logan won't take no for an answer. Tension soon hits a fever pitch as this battle of wills plays out in a story that is as funny as it is terrifying.
