Critic Reviews for 4.3.2.1

Audience Reviews for 4.3.2.1

• Nov 25, 2013

  Noel Clarke ("creative mind" behind Kidulthood, Adulthood, Storage 24 and The Knot, but probably best known to Tumblr as Mickey Smith from Doctor Who) brought out 4.3.2.1 in 2010. For the most part it revolves around four young women who are inexplicably swept up in a jewell-heist gone wrong. Critics for the most part panned 4.3.2.1, but I enjoyed it. Maybe it's just a weakness for British Gangster films, but I honestly thought it was quite good. It's hardly Guy Ritchie-esque in its complexity, but it does fit into the "worth watching" category. No one actor is really given a chance to stand out, although Noel Clarke did imposing very well (compared to Mickey SMith at least). There's a couple of slight challenges to some pretty standard sexist tropes, but it essentially slots into a rather stereotypical female-led action movie, with a lot of Skins thrown into the actual plot. The split story-lines may not be completely original, but at least it's not worn out, and they're done in a capable way. 68% -Gimly

  In "4.3.2.1," Shannon(Ophelia Lovibond) could very much use a friend to talk to but none of them are currently available. Cassandra(Tamsin Egerton) is in New York for an audition and to meet a cute guy she met online. Kerrys(Shanika Warren-Markland) is taking the opportunity to borrow Cassandra's apartment to spend some quality time with her girlfriend Jas(Susannah Fielding). And Joanne(Emma Roberts) has to cover shifts at a convenience store. All of which is a shame because Shannon's problems not only include her mother leaving, but diamonds. "4.3.2.1" is a flashy, superficial, contrived and convoluted movie that tries to stuff in too much story and cameos to the detriment of any kind of heart, making it with its interlocking stories nothing more substantial than a substandard series of "Skins" episodes, minus all the drugs.(I'm still not sure how the diamonds fit in, by the way.) Shannon's story is supposed to be touching but she just comes off as needy and pathetic. Cassandra's story is just sort of icky. Kerrys does little of interest. Well, at least the movie saves the best for last as Emma Roberts makes the best of a bad situation while delivering a key speech with gusto, just before the movie remembers that it was supposed to be about female friendship in the first place.

  Ambitious, fitfully funny and engagingly directed thriller/comedy that sort of feels like a feature length episode of the UK series <i>Skins</i>. Ultimately some dodgy acting, fantastical elements and shamelessly exploitative parts don't stop this being a pretty entertaining flick from one-man movie mogul Noel Clarke.

  A couple great lines as well as moments, but the whole thing is pretty much A O Fucking K.
