Review of Babylon

Babylon (2014)
8/10
The truth is an offence but not a sin
11 February 2014
...but the truth is proper, laugh-out-loud, funny!

If you've spent your adult (or even teenage) life having run-ins with Britain's, London-based Metropolitan Police, Babylon will resonate like real life.

It's quick-witted, sharp and cutting.

Taken from the Biblical term for evil-doers, Babylonians, the film's title is apt and the script, directing and acting are down-right funny!

From the honest commissioner, through to the modernist and radical, American PR woman, the armed response unit, the infamous, rapid response and mobile TSG (Territorial Support Group) who in real life often haven't the foggiest idea of where they are or what they're doing, right through to the over-zealous constable (a euphemism), Babylon exposes the Met police for what they are.
