OUTLAW

With Sean Bean, Bob Hoskins, Danny Dyer, Rupert Friend, Sean Harris, Lennie James, Sally Bretton

Written & Directed by Nick Love

The director of violent British subjects like
The Football Factory and The Business will also be directing the film version of the popular TV series The Sweeney. Here he tackles the subject of extreme vigilante action in the shape of a diverse group of people disillusioned with scum having free reign and the government and judicial system with hands tied. An ex-soldier and a security guard become the contact point for several victims of violence. At first what seems like a self-defense class soon becomes an active group that goes out to engage criminals. With corruption inside the police force, things get hotter and hotter as street justice and violence turns to killing...
A vivid depiction of what many people feel like doing, but never would.
