Storyline Baz is one of Britain’s new bicycle police, a figure of fun. But soon he will turn from cycle cop to psycho-path. As riots break out in London, a head injury skews Baz into a vigilante, offering criminals the choice of arrest or death. Baz sees his campaign as lawful killing. Lowlifes who are too stunned, confused, or drunk to argue when he politely asks, “May I kill you?” are merrily dispatched. All filmed on the helmet-cam and posted on social networks! Using the alter ego @N4cethelaw, Baz acquires thousands more fans with each killing, dispensing justice to scumbags, cleaning up society. In a sudden reversal, Baz is captured by an enraged relative of one of his presumed “kills”, and faces slaughter or - even worse – exposure. Written by Anonymous |

This is British Horror however it's more like Dark Thriller with some dark Humor mixed in.
This movie start with scene from the UK riots 2011, how these thugs took over.
Baz (He a cop) and is partner are cycling, one of thug from th gang throws something at him, that makes his bike tip over and then Baz hits his head on the pavement.
Which lead him having some really bad head aches now and again / Baz is so fed with these thugs, so he had another idea how to clean up the street.
Baz turns into psycho cop, Who kills people, that have been doing bad things, while he kills these people, He also films them with his helmet cam, then post these videos on the internet with fake name.
Though out this movie, we see him text and twitter tweets and he ends up gaining a number of followers on twitter who are happy about what he is doing.
I found this movie to be very intruding, I really liked this movie, nice clever plot to the movie, with one or two laugh and moment but i would not call it comedy at all nor did have much horror.
The kills in this are just violent but not bloody or gory kills, which I thought could made this movie tad darker then it already was.
The acting was really good in this movie from whole cast!
6 out of 10,
Comes hitting with the strength of a cult classic, and hopefully to stay. This witty English comedy has collected laughter among the audiences and reluctance among the critics. Extremely contemporary, this film may fail to pass the test of time, but for the time that has been running has delighted viewers with his dark humour and satirical style that has been characteristic of decades of English storytelling.
This eccentric mesh, all topped with the brilliant performance of Kevin Bishop, foresees the actor's career break toward comedy, proving success in both sides of the lake after his role in Super Fun Night.
However, the film doesn't seem to have fulfilled the American critic scene's expectations. From my point of view, with punch lines like 'Does anyone else here speak English and have been raped?', the scene can be presented a bit raw to swallow for American audiences. Nevertheless, is the incongruence and boldness of these dialogues what makes the characters in this film crazy and unique, and builds the dark charm of British comedy.
Definitely a must see this summer.
I loved this funny movie with a nice looking London copper who got up to all sorts. Really funny and original. Nice to see British movies still getting made like this. This is one of those films that you have to keep to watch again. It is nice to have a laugh and this was a film that did that for us. A bit close to the knuckle at times but is a way that British films are. A bit like seaside postcards – they have a way of poking fun at the establishment and being liked for doing it. So to tie this up it was great to watch. If you want entertainment then this should do you. His private life was weird. Hilarious though. Well made, well acted, well directed. I'm looking forward to more coming out like this.
I found this film to be quite a surprise in that I found it somewhat hard to identify the genre: I concluded that this was mainly due to it following a number of strands that combined comedy, horror and notion of drama that together provided a caricature of London's finest that may shock but will also certainly attract. It was a most original concept that was well written, well directed and well made. The lead character's strange tastes were matched by the strange relationship he 'enjoyed' with his with his mother. His notion of service in which he pursues his own agenda was quite hilarious. Suffice to say this appeared to be driven by a rather overwhelming personality disorder that verged on the psychotic. It was certainly off-beat but also highly entertaining, sometimes shocking and came with the raw-edge grittiness that British films often excel at. In fact it is fair to say that this is an example of Indie Cinema at its best and I would certainly recommend it.
