Review of Tony (2010) by Matt S — 28 Apr 2010
A disturbing tale directed by Gerard Johnson(The The's Matt Johnson's brother) about an isolated man living in London. He doesn't want a job, no one will give him a job. He spends his time watching action movies on VHS tapes. His attempts to mix with other people are disastrous be it mixing with drug dealers, prostitutes or in gay bars. He's an easy target for the bullies. All this leads to the "occassional" bout of extreme violence & murder.
It's dark, seedy & an awkward film & you do feel for him at times. There's isn't a plot as such other than a missing boy who's father believe's Tony has taken him.
A good moral from this story is tho, never try & take a mans TV away, you will regret it.
