I had avoided this film up until now being put off by the awful title and hearing about Ben Kingsley's insistence of being called Sir on the poster and the credits. Stylistically it's a bit of a poor mans 'Lock Stock' but its not actually a bad film at all. A tale of mistaken identity , revenge and multiple double crossings it's quite compelling storytelling (if a tad convoluted at times) and I liked how it all came together and even explained the awful title. The cast all put in good performances but barring Lucy Liu's bubbly character are a thoroughly unlikable group of assorted villains and scum bags. All in all not sure if I would come back and re watch it but its certainly worth a couple of hours of your time.

This documentary is one of my favorites. It's really hard to watch at some points, not because it's bad, but just because it's cringy and uncomfortable. It's surprising to me that people still catfish to this day, but I guess it works out for Nev because he made an 8 season show about it.

I wish they would make an addendum or something to see what their relationship is like now. It's been 10 years since the film came out and 12 since it all actually happened. Nev is married and has two kids now. He said, a couple of years after the film came out, that Angela is still a big part of his life, but that was 8 years ago. I wonder where they are now.
