I have been reviewing films all my life, semi-professionally in the past and for the past 10 or 12 years on imdb and more recently in letterboxd and facebook. The idea of this blog is to get as many of those reviews gathered together in one place. I have had a great deal of support and encouragement from a lot of people throughout the world and I hope that continues. Now for the ratings. **** = not to be missed. *** = highly recommended. ** = recommended. * = of interest and no stars = avoid..

NEVER LET GO **
Nasty and brutish it may be but this British crime movie is also
extremely gripping and very well done for what it is. Richard Todd is
the salesman who goes after the thieves who stole his car. Adam Faith is
the young thug who actually took it and, cast against type, Peter
Sellers is superb as the psychotic Mr Big figure. A 17 year old Carol
White, (she of "Cathy Come Home" fame), is Sellers' young mistress. The
director was John Guillermin and he gives the film a nice sleazy
atmosphere and makes very good use of his London locations.
