I thought the twist was obvious from about 20 minutes in - but it was an awesome film, and figuring it out that early made no difference to how good it was. Two scenes stand out the most for me. The first is the one near the beginning where Considine sees one of them in that working men's club and he says "What you looking at then?" - Considine's response is absolutely classic. The second is where Stretch gets out of that crummy little 2CV and 'confronts' Considine. The whole scene is fantastic - "You're there mate" (pointing at the palm of his hand). One of my favourite films - even if it is complete Kurosawa-worship.
Those are great scenes and the true mark of a psychopath.
The bloke who plays Anthony is superb....I saw him in Rocknrolla and it really hit home how good his acting was in DMS.
The bloke he lets live (Mark?) his missus who answers the door is the same actress that plays Shaun's mum in This in England. Theres quite a few TIE actors in it actually.
Pop quiz....where does the actor who plays Milky appear in DMS? He is credited as "Elvis"

Ha! Just watched it again after seeing this thread - spotted him in the scene where they bury the brother. Blink and you'll miss him!
[cite]Posted By: johnnybev1987[/cite]agreed brilliant film, similar to the business definately recommend it
Tamer & Danny D work well together, to think i put name wrong on other thread shhhhh dont tell anyone :P
DMS is similar to The Business?
I think so the whole going round together and the high's and lows, obviously about something different but similar i thought and anyone who likes the business will like this
Yes i have! maybe just me then mate, what i mean by similar is basically Tamer & Danny D combo. i can see they are very different thinking about it but still would say people who like one will no doubt like the other
A classic - the scene after Considine spikes the lad's tea and pot noodles with acid is truly grim. Probably the most realistic recreation of someone on acid ever on film. Quality film.

Just cried with laughter at the thought of a gang going to 'sort someone aaat' in a 2CV.

Seen both and The Business isn't in the same league and very different films.
DMS is one of the best British films I have ever seen. Brilliantly shot with an undertone of genuine menace. Paddy is amazing in it.
The Business has Danny Dyer and Tamer Hussein in it. Enough said!
Think i have got my wires crossed dead man running i was talking about sorry, think i have seen DMS tooo cant remember now tho oops
