London, a film written and directed by Hunter Richards, warns against the allure of cocaine as protagonist Sid (Chris Evans), loses his girlfriend, London, and also loses his mind from drug use. Set mostly in a bathroom at London's going away party, the film features Sid doing coke with various model-type chicks, while mustering up courage to go downstairs and make peace with his ex-girlfriend. London (Jessica Biel) instigates their breakup after sleeping around and failing to help Sid's depression, culminating in his suicide attempt. Sid's angst builds in the bathroom, as he gets higher, creating a tortured scenario reminiscent of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. Finally, Sid faces London and starts a chaotic brawl. A side-plot involves Bateman (Jason Stathham), the coke dealer devoted to counseling Sid. Bateman soothes Sid's pain by describing the real frustration of impotency, manifesting itself in a love for S&M clubs. With such a simplistic plot, London is as devoid of logic as the lifestyle it glamorizes, making its pointlessness ingeniously vapid. Sid's quest for sanity is difficult to empathize with, since he’s an egotistical, drug-addled loser. Sid repeatedly questions the existence of God between scenes of his failed relationship with London, obviously linking his heartbreak and his loss of faith. At its worst, London portrays a shallow, juvenile couple's inability to resolve personal issues. At best, London cleverly pits cocaine's sex appeal against the doomed fates of those who fall prey to it.--Trinie Dalton

This movie was just awful. Just a lot of screaming, yelling and very bad acting. What a waste of time and money for everyone involved (including the viewers).

Actually, I was having a sleepless night & changing TV channels, i came across this movie where Syed was having an argument with his friend in the toilet. This movie could be boring to some because it limits you between the party-holder-toilet & Syed's Apartment. I loved it because I found it amazing how some guy can be in so deep love with this girl but during their relationship he doesn't show his affection, his passion & his love. They always argue & argue about everything and ... Read More

I titled the review the way I did becuase the mvie does a good job at shedding new light on several of it's lead actors, and it does it in a way where you get to see range and depth not previously shown.
The movie at heart is a broken-love story. Guy has beautiful girl; guy loses said girl; guys spends majority of movie trying to convince himself and others the girl was the on for him. Not unfamiliar territory, but here it's done in a way that many teen/young adult dramas don't---they ... Read More

If you have ever experienced an intense break-up after a passionate love affair, you will marvel at how realistically this film exams that experience. It is a bit dark and a downer and the the drugs and sex will offend some. However, it is not one of those neat little Hollywood packages where the ending is trite and perfect. It is very true to life. This is not a simple black and white ending. The film looks at the shades of grey we all have to live with from time to time and the ending reflects the ... Read More

Many seem to really criticize this film but i happened to be pleasantly surprised when I saw it. I thought the actors were all well cast even though it may be different from some of their previous work but they filled the roles well.
The whole movie is basically about how complicated love can be and is shown through the eyes of Syd and how his relationship slowly but undeniably fell apart with London. Most of the movie is shown in a bathroom but the issues talked about amongst Syd and Bateman ... Read More
