THE BUSINESS (2005)

NICK LOVE

Plot

Frankie shares a slum flat in a faceless London high rise with his abused mum and her hateful boyfriend. When the opportunity arises to make a no questions asked delivery to a playboy geezer living the high life on the Costa Del Crime, Frankie doesn't need to think it over. Taken under the wing of a loaded bank robber on the lamb, Frankie quickly settles into the life of the criminal loads a' money ex-pat, but then how many of us wouldn't? The Business is a nasty, tacky, tasty little piece of work, set during the 1980s, loaded with label shell suits, dodgy music, casual violence, obscene tans and questionable acting; its what loaded readers need when all those words next to the pictures get too much. Entertainingly unpleasant.
