London Calling

About This Movie

London Calling is a curious blend of action, crime, and comedy that really tries to subvert the typical hitman trope. Allan Ungar's direction keeps a brisk pace, balancing humor with a surprising amount of heart. The dynamic between the seasoned hitman and his teenage charge has a kind of awkward sincerity that feels fresh. The practical effects during the action sequences add a gritty realism that contrasts nicely with the comedic elements. Performances are solid, especially from the lead, who carries that worn-out charm. It’s a film that doesn’t take itself too seriously, yet it still manages to delve into themes of mentorship and personal growth in a chaotic underworld. Definitely one to think about after the credits roll.
