    Arguably the best Brit Ganster flick ever made. Although Rob L. is right, it doesn't suit export. Funny, sarcastic, and with just a little bit of action. If nothing else get this film because Americans don't understand it.

    I can't believe the yankee critics didn't like this movie. It is hysterically funny! I like how the characters have the same names as their actors. Probably Jude Law's best performance to date, and Ray Winstone is awesome as usual.

    I think this film is very dry witted and action packed and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Full of brit humour, slightly warped ... no wonder the americans dont get it.

    An absolutely excellent film... true to London life and I should know. Absolutely hysterically funny in places and hard hitting in the same vane. How any one can say it is an awful film does not come from this world and quite obviously doesn

    Having just watched it again, my 10th time or something like that, I still enjoy it immensely. It does have a dark UK undertone, but being English, I can appreciate it. A quality film! If your not from the UK and have our humour, then take it with a pinch of salt......enjoy!

    I have to say, this is one of my favourite movies, with some of my favourite actors (watched it more than 5 times). Unfortunately, most North Americans don't understand British humour. There's alot of dark humour, but it suits the characters. I think everyone should watch it, I'm sure you'll get something out of it.

    Superhumanly awful BBC bottom-feeder Love, Honour and Obey, which, paramount among its many faults, is not recognizably a film.

    To describe Love, Honor and Obey as a cross between "Duets" and "Snatch" doesn't begin to suggest how desperately unfunny this musical gangster comedy is.

    The result is sometimes strained, but often fresh and funny. And the sequence in which the entire cast sings "Avenues and Alleyways," bombastic '70s crooner Tony Christie's lush ode to thug life, is worth the price of admission in itself.
