Check out this AICN Exclusive Poster Debut for HARD BOILED SWEETS!
Hello ladies and gentlemen, Muldoon here with a pretty nifty poster debut for the film HARD BOILED SWEETS from director David L.G. Hughes. I haven't seen the film myself, yet plan to check it out after Fantastic Fest-festivities die down. It seems like the kind of flick I'm into - so I'm hopeful. It hits Video On Demand this Friday (Sept. 25th), so if a snappy British heist flick is right up your alley - bam! give it a go.
Check out BritGeek's review HERE.
Ex-con Johnny is forced into pulling a heist he wants nothing to do with. Mob boss 'Shrewd' Eddie has one million in dirty cash stashed at his home, just waiting to be stolen. But what Johnny doesn't know is that seven other very dangerous criminals also have plans to steal the money...
And while we're here, check out the film's official trailer:

Glad to see the film reach the US.

Shot on a Canon 5D Mk II. Can't wait to see the results.

I have this film on DVD already and also did my research for this film (Im based in the UK and love Brit thrillers) This is a very cool indie film with a cast of names you might not recognize at first glance but check them out on IMDB and youll be wonderfully amazed at who is in this film Paul Freeman (Raiders of the Lost Ark) Ian Hart (HBO's Luck) just to name two. This film looks beautiful, extremely well shot and snappy and funny dialogue Definitely check the film out in whichever format you can.

Looks good, but I liked it when it was called "Sexy beast" also.

Always loved Paul Freeman's vanishing fly trick in Raiders. And the man didn't bat an eye.

More violence porn. Our culture is corrupt beyond description.
by Raptor Jesus
Ask yourself two questions: 1) How many people have I seen murdered in real life? 2) How many people have I seen murdered onscreen? 5,000? 10,000? 20,000? Movie ticket sales are down huge in the past ten years. Why? Maybe people are sick to death of the onslaught of guns and insanely over the top violence.

"Pretty nifty poster"? Yes, if that was your kid's first try at using Photoshop, I guess.
by AlienFanatic
:) Awful hack job of a poster, though I always wish Mr. Freeman the best.

Oh and BTW, since Harry's DVD column looks to be MIA, let me say that if it wasn't for the Jaws restoration, Raiders would nab DVD of the year.
by openthepodbaydoorshal
Another wonderful job. Looks and sounds amazing.

I can't get enough of it. Real-world violence is bad, though.

chick looks hot though

Terrible film. Rented it months ago and laughed for the first ten minutes for all the wrong reasons before turning it off.

The Best British Crime Film I've Seen in Years - Ain't it Cool News
by CountOrlok
In other words, it's shit.

It is shit... a big steaming pile of shit at that. It makes me so sad to see my beloved British film industry turning out bollocks like this. Keep your money and buy Tyrannosaur instead, now that is quality.

Bang! cut scene. Bang! cut scene. Rinse and repeat.
by MoistMuskyCamelToe
When all you can cut for your trailer are fast snaps of pretty people shooting each other, you're working with a turd. Looks like a poor man's Snatch or Lock Stock.

...but man, this is an awesome movie. As a fan of Jennifer Howell's art direction for years, I can say I was literally on the edge of my seat waiting for this to be released, and I was not disappointed! Lloyd George's film editing is as exciting as always, and the score by up-and-comer Tom Morrison is cutting edge and hip! All you Salman Bhutta fans out there will be well served, as the art department has never been assisted more competently on any movie in the english speaking world. I am not a plant, just a regular guy who happens to be a big fan of movies on which Freedie Stopler has worked as makeup designer. Please rent this on Netflix today! You will not be disappointed!

Wait, Freedie Stopler worked on this as a makeup designer?!
by WriteForTheEdit
SAY NO MORE!
-
A pile of wank from start to finish.
-
and don't forget Lloyd George is the editor! Not to mention Jennifer Howell as head of the art department (assisted, as ever, by faithful & reliable Salman Bhutta)......
-
Why is aicn news spending so much time and energy on not very exclusive exclusives regarding really shit movies. Nobody will be watching this.......

This trailer tells me that this movie will be full of girls getting naked, having sex, and people getting shot. NETFLIX HERE I COME!
by Dandelion.
It will be on netflix, right?
-
dont waste your time totally derivative brit gangster movie .weve been waiting for something original since lockstock .this definitely not the one.

...was a Brit crime movie that came out in that post-Tarantino late 90s rush. Directed by Bharat Nalluri, who went on to do Crow: Salvation and a bunch of episodes of Torchwood, so not very much. It was a piffle but I liked it quite a bit. Hasn't had a proper DVD release. I've converted my old VHS but it looks bad. I mean, as long as we're talking about minor Brit crime dramas...
