John Mackenzie's rabidly engaging, complex gangster film concerns the demise of a dominant English racketeer, Harold (Bob Hoskins), who is about to change his image and go straight. While negotiating a deal with an American organized crime organization to develop the barren Docklands section of London, his associates begin to turn up dead, and the tough Cockney businessman realizes that getting out will be more difficult than he had anticipated. This extremely tight British thriller made Hoskins a star.
Cast:
"...[An] absorbing, fast-paced narrative....Some nicely observed performances..."
-- Simo.
, (Variety)
"...THE LONG GOOD FRIDAY is a swift, sharp-edged gangster story in a classic mold....Surprising, suspenseful drama..." -- Janet Maslin , (New York Times) "...The movie's IRA subplot makes it a juicy companion piece to John Boorman's great new Irish mob pic THE GENERAL..." -- Mike Clark , (USA Today) "...This still holds up as one of the few British gangster films with the same intensity and drive as the best Hollywood has to offer..." -- Geoffrey Macnab , (Sight and Sound) "Hoskins is pure fire. It's the signature performance in a criminally underappreciated career." -- Grade: A -- Chris Nashawaty , (Entertainment Weekly) 5 stars out of 5 -- "John MacKenzie's masterful thriller features a career-best performance from Bob Hoskins..." -- Mark Salisbury , (Total Film)
