Known more for it's twist than anything, The crying game at best is a average drama . The film never went anywhere. First half was at least intriguing but after the Twist it began to feel cheap.
With Forest's awful accent, it can take anyone many minutes to realise he English. The overall acting was fine and the conversations between the hostage and the capturer were engaging. All fairness , the first half of the film was enjoyable but after the twist it began to be daft. Thought i was watching another overblown story from the writers for Eastenders I find it hard why the crying game is ranked up there with the greatest British films of all time. After listening to the cockney lady call out " Jimmy" for the hundredth time i began to loose my patience. The twist was unexpected but it did nothing for the overall film
