This film seriously lacks credibility., 7 November 2005
1/10
Author: Avril from United Kingdom

I've lived in Edinburgh for over 30 years and it saddened me greatly to see life in our city portrayed so ineptly. Edinburgh is a fascinating place for students, artists and young people - but this film failed, by a mile, to convey Edinburgh life. With the honourable exception of Richard Wilson, the attempts at Scottish accents were a complete joke. Gina McKie, Helena Bonham Carter, James Purefoy, etc, looked the part, but that's as far as it went. The geography of Edinburgh was also very distended. Were the characters getting around by teleportation? Certainly not by any pedestrian routes or public transport routes that I have seen! Compare this film with "Shallow Grave" and "Trainspotting" and you'll see the difference.
