Down Terrace (2009)

Director: Ben Wheatley

Writers: Ben Wheatley, Robin Hill

Stars: Robin Hill, Robert Hill, Julia Deakin, Michael Smiley

I have a soft spot for gangster movies, especially British ones. “Down Terrace” is a lesson on what you can achieve with a budget of ten grand. It’s also a bloody good movie. The acting is understated but more importantly, believable. When Bob says, “You’re only as good as the people you’re with”, it’s gospel. Michael Smiley, a regular in Ben Wheatley films gives another surreal performance as a stay at home hitman.
