The Krays (1990)
6/10
Hardly a barrel of laughs
3 December 2000
The Krays is a dark movie about the two east end brothers Ron and Reg Kray who ruled London during the 60's. Gary and Martin Kemp pull off creditable displays considering this was there acting debuts and that they were used to performing in the brilliant band Spandau Ballet instead of acting. Having just read Reg Krays autobiography he does not actualy say to much about the movie exept that they got the roll of their mother completley wrong. Reg Kray says that his mother was a quite and uninsuming woman which is the opposite to the part portrayed by Billie Whitelaw. Reg and Ronnie Kray are now both dead. Ron died in prison and Reg was released on compationate grounds early in the year 2000 when he was diognosed with terminal Cancer. He died a few weeks later. 6 out of 10.
