London Evening Standard May 21, 2010
1/5
Everything about this supposedly raw exposé feels like yesterday's news. Go to Full Review
Anthony Quinn Independent (UK) May 21, 2010
1/5
The plot, concerning the identity of a snuff-movie killer, is a gruesome mixture of sexual sadism and sentimentality, made even less palatable by dialogue of quarter-witted aggression. Go to Full Review
Antonia Quirke Financial Times May 21, 2010
2/5
Awful -- bad acting, the worst kind of cockney clichés. Go to Full Review
Allan Hunter Daily Express (UK) May 21, 2010
1/5
Tight close-ups and direct-to- camera confessionals are the order of the day in a film so peppered with sleazy sex, casual violence and endless swearing that it comes perilously close to caricature. Nobody's finest hour. Go to Full Review
Trevor Johnston Radio Times May 21, 2010
1/5
The sight of Dyer operating under the delusion he's channelling Al Pacino is grim enough, but the real blame must be laid at the door of director/star/co-writer Cavanah, who seriously underperforms in all three roles. Go to Full Review
Ellen E Jones Total Film May 21, 2010
1/5
You wouldn't think a film could actually be both very boring and very offensive. Pimp is that paradox made flesh Go to Full Review

Jul 31, 2016 Surprisingly entertaining. There was a month or two where I just really didn't want to see anything in theaters. Good dialogue, seemed definitely realistic except you could tell that it wasn't really hidden camera footage so I don't know why they added that to the dvd box. See more Mar 14, 2012 Pretty bad..they can't decide if the want it to be a documentary, a movie, or a plain interview. See more Sep 22, 2011 Waste of time movie which I only watched because of Danny Dyer. Avoid at all costs! See more Sep 20, 2011 Only ok, could have been so much more. See more Mar 31, 2011 Its entertaining enough but not done very well. Good cast but not used to their full potential. It's a decent story but maybe a little farfetched. I do love a good cockney accent though and Danny Dyers is the best around =) See more Jan 3, 2011 Some will like some will hate, if you're like me and like British gangster with faces you expect to see then it's a good watch See more Read all reviews
