Ok, after hearing how amazing Kingsley's performance was in Sexy Beast, I went out and bought the DVD.
I watched it last night, and I think it's an *ok* film.
However, I find the hype around Kingsley's performance to be just that, hype.
Not that it was bad mind you. In fact I think it was very good.
Deserving of all the praise it's receiving? No.
I've heard people say that his portrayal of a gangster was better than Pesci in Goodfellas.
Get F'N real!!!
Again, he did a great job, and he nailed that style of British accent, (Although I'll bet some Brits will laugh at me for that statement ) but rivals Pesci and Deniro??
I don't think so.
Am I alone in thinking this??
