24 Hours in London Reviews:
Not Over Rated !!!!!!!!!! 
2005-03-26 - This film is about Two thugs turned business Gangster in Englands Crime world. They have a crew of men and women who sadistically carry out there dirty work and as per a deal to become parteners with an american Crime figure they are taking out all of there competion, the russions, and two other gangs of crooks that have been getting uppity, throw in a couple of medical practioners sedating and selling body organs on the human market and all kinds of comical action and what you end up with is an awsome action movie that takes place over 24 hours in london.
If you have seen either "Hard Men"(Ross Boatman, Vincent Regan, Lee Ross), or "Lock Stock And Two smoking barrels"(Jason Stratham-of'the Transpoter', Jason Flemyng-of 'League of Extraordinary Gentlemen')You will Know that them Brits' can knock up some super classic movies!!!
Awsome shoot-em up flick 
2004-05-26 - Well i think you all under rate this awsome gorey, bloody soaked in violance movie. i actually got my copy from a friend and i havent returned it since! well he didnt care and didnt like it as much as i did. but anyways great movie, great acting and great sound track. btw anyone know the name to the song they play on the dvd title? i would like to pick it up
Bloody Hell! 
2003-11-11 - Don't rent this piece of shere rubbish! This movie jsut wanted to cash in on the success of well made movies such as "Pulp Fiction" and "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrells". It fails... completely!
I had to select "1 Star" as I was forbidden to submit this review without seleceting a number. I wanted to submit "0" but that option isn't available.
What an utter waste of an evening!
Oh...my...God!
2003-08-25 - 24 Hours in London isn't the worst movie ever made, it just feels like it. It started off okay but you can tell right away that it's one of those straight to video B movies-- just bad enough to be good. I almost expected Eric Roberts or Rutger Hauer to show up. But it went from bad to worse to one of THE WORST movies you'll ever see. It was disturbingly bad, not to mention just plain disturbing. Like "Seven," or "Salo" (never seen the latter but from what I hear I never want to),it's one of those movies that makes you feel different for several days after watching it. You know a flick is bad when the villains tell you every detail of their sinister plan before they off you. It's good for a stoned laugh or two...maybe three because the acting and dialogue are deplorable. I wish I could give it a -5 stars. Ridiculous. The good news is it only cost me 1 dollar. I guess you get what you pay for.
Funny, sexy and clever. Three things this movie isn't. 
2003-06-23 - 24 HOURS IN LONDON is set in London (obviously) in 2009, where a sexy female doctor is seducing men and then drugging them to steal their organs (Not THAT one!) for sale on the black market along with (of course) drugs. Her trail is pursued by a pair of corrupt police officers whose idea of fun is blowing things up. Ironic, considering this movie comes within a hair's breadth of being a certified BOMB.
Written and directed by Alexander Finbow, 24 HOURS IN LONDON attempts to be flashy; but for half its duration the movie's mis-en-scene looks like it was purposely designed to make viewers feel like they're intoxicated- and if you genuinely ARE while watching this, then lucky you. Finbow's script appears to have been written just to please himself, because not many others will be. Add to this a soundtrack loaded with thumping techno music that amounts to nothing more than a 90 minute assault on the eardrums, and the only real organ stolen is the viewer's brain. It only gets 2 stars because I've seen far worse (Ever seen NAIL GUN MASSACRE or ANDY WARHOL'S TRASH?). The DVD also includes the trailer. Watch that first in order to discern if your really want to subject yourself to the torture of watching this movie. My "funny, sexy, clever" comment comes from some UK reviewer whose comments are on the DVD cover. It's probably safe to assume that Finbow blew a large chunk of the movie's budget paying this critic to say something nice about his movie. If he was paying ME I'd take the money, but I'd still trash his movie. I'm one of those guys who can't give anything other than his honest opinion, sorry to say. There is however, a memorable bit where a guy gets acid thrown in his face, resulting in a gruesome R-rated melting scene even the G-rated Wicked Witch Of The West would be proud of.
