Review of Filth

Filth (I) (2013)
Boring and aimlessly meandering plot
14 August 2014
This film tells the story of a policeman who is up for a promotion. However his life spirals out of control, when his drug problem consumes him.

The film is certainly named correctly, as there's a lot of filth on the film. The policeman, played by James McAvoy, is initially portrayed to be a sex maniac. Afterwards, he becomes a trouble maker who stirs up stuff and then insists on fixing the situation. He's a mess up character, and I have no sympathy for him. Even though the film provokes much feelings in me towards a character, there's still no connection between me and the film. I found the plot boring and meandering, as it has no apparent message to convey. It's a disappointment, given the fair number is big name involved in it.
