Layer Cake

A smart, twisty British gangster movie starring Daniel Craig as a smug drug dealer

A smart, twisty British gangster movie starring Daniel Craig as a smug drug dealer. He thinks he's got everything under control, but his life starts unravelling bit time after his boss, Colm Meaney, sends him on a clean-up job and he gets caught up in the sale of a mountain of Ecstasy pills.

The violence is raw, but good acting and realistic dialogue put director Matthew Vaughn's stylish, gripping thriller among the best. Michael Gambon, Kenneth Cranham, Jason Flemyng and Dexter Feletcher are among the tough-guy cast and you'll also be able to spot Tom Hardy and Ben Whishaw.
