Layer Cake
Sleek, well-dressed and polite, our hero (Daniel Craig) has made a fortune selling cocaine and ecstasy without really getting his hands dirty. Now he's looking to retire while he's young enough to enjoy his ill-gotten gains. But crime boss Jimmy Price (Kenneth Cranham) needs a couple of favors: The drug addict daughter of a mob overlord (Michael Gambon) has gone missing and Price wants her tracked down. Price also wants a middleman to buy a huge shipment of ecstasy from a loose-cannon crook called The Duke (Jamie Foreman). Sounds straightforward enough. But nothing's ever simple. With a renegade Serbian warlord thrown into the equation and a host of dangerous lowlifes out to help and hinder him, our hero soon realizes getting out of the drug business just might cost him everything. Including his life.

Solid action film, great acting and story, with a climatic ending thrown in. This movie shows why Craig was chosen to play Bond.
One Of My Top Ten @LaMonica
I love this movie. It's intricate without being convoluted . It has wit and dicey fun when. It's rough and tough in the right areas, without trying too hard. I usually use this movie as a way to gauge another person's movie taste and whether or not I will take movie opinions from them. If they don't like this.. I won't value their opinion. Daniel Craig is awesome. But so is the rest of the supporting cast. A classic in British crime movies.
