One viewer, who rated it five out of five stars, said: “I had never heard of this film so wasn’t expecting too much, but was pleasantly surprised at just how good it was. Gritty and realistic with some genuinely funny moments and it finally explains what Jeff ended up doing after JLB shut down.”

While a second, who said it “will not disappoint” wrote: “I did not catch this on its release and to be fair cannot remember it with the like of Lock Stock a couple of years prior but this is very watchable and shows how it’s done in Liverpool instead of the cockney London stereotyped story.”

Amazon Prime subscribers can watch the 2000s film on the streaming platform for free.
