About this product

Product Information

As deeply cool and urbane as its unnamed hero, LAYER CAKE follows the precise, articulate XXXX (Daniel Craig) as he maneuvers through what he intends to be his last business deal in modern-day London. His business? Drugs. On the cusp of turning 30, XXXX has amassed a personal fortune, deftly avoiding the violence and ugliness so many others in his trade fall prey to by following a strict personal code defined by discretion and clean detachment from the products he sells. Just as XXXX is poised to cash in and get out, Jimmy Price (Kenneth Cranham), the top layer of this particular underworld cake, hands down two tasks: find Eddie Temple's (Michael Gambon) drug-addicted daughter, and unload a mass of ecstasy stolen in Amsterdam by the sloppy, loud Duke (Jamie Foreman), who is exactly the type of wannabe gangster that XXXX has spent his career avoiding. Further complicating matters is Tammy (Sienna Miller), a sexy young blond who XXXX meets in a club and can't get off his mind.First-time director Michael Vaughn (producer on SNATCH and LOCK, STOCK, AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS) brings a practiced eye to the film, creating a slick, highly entertaining visual style which perfectly complements the twisting storyline. The London drug world comes to vibrant life in screenwriter J.J. Connolly's adaptation of his first novel, which retains its keen ear for slang and its eye for detail, giving LAYER CAKE a thrilling ring of authenticity. In the role of XXXX, Daniel Craig has a commanding presence, portraying a man who is so good at his job that he may never be permitted to leave it, regardless of how smart he is or how well he's planned. Like the best in the crime-thriller genre, LAYER CAKE is unpredictable, unsettling, and unforgettable.

No Headaches with this Asprin
One of the many great lines in Layer Cake comes where a character, Duke [played by Jamie Foreman], yells at Daniel Craig's character who is an unnamed "XXXX" about the value of a drug tablet "E's." Fed up with the bargaining with XXXX, Duke says, " Oh, you give a fuckin' aspirin a headache, pal!" Layer Cake will take your headache away. The sophisticated humor, twists, turns and clever screenplay make it just like the recommendation on the DVD cover says: "Hilarious and genuinely cool." This was the last movie Craig did before his selection as the Bond character. It's not a Bond film, it's better, but one can see how and why he was selected.

Layer after layer of action,and suspence,surprises
This movie I would recommend to anyone who is interested in dark movies like Quentin Tarantino. It's in a foreign setting,lots of mystery,action packed,shoot em up plots,intense violent language,amazing special effects, and of course the lead actor is sooo hot!!! The ending is an incredibly intense twist of storyline. Be prepared for drama and action around every corner,nail biting,edge of the seat,adreniline rush. I love this kind of movie. Rare find,not much advertisement,curiously came across it at a rental place,and ended up astoundedly impressed.

Brit Crime at its best ......
Nobody makes a crime movie like the Brits. They are always "involved", interesting, and loaded with a bushel basket of diverse, well-developed characters. Here Daniel Craig shows us his intensity just before becoming the latest (and bestest) James Bond in story of a well-heeled drug dealer who announces his retirement only to find there is no such thing. The lovely Sienna Miller has a cameo and the incomparable Michael Gambon plays marvelous "exit' character to the plot. Gambon, like so many Brit second tier masters, can raise the level of a film a notch or two and he does that here. If you are bored with Hollywood get into Brit Crime and start here.

A very active Crime Thriller.
Yes, it a very thrilling crime film. Nice to experience Daniel Craig early in his career, and before James Bond.
