Have read the book and it's certainly a great read. Not seen the film yet as it's not out here yet 
If it's any way as good as the book then it'll be a little cracker. I have seen the trailers for it, and it is a Matthew Vaughan thing, so will be a little lock stock like, probably more of the feel of 'Mean Machine' thank lock sock though.

Gets a 7.0 rating on IMDB which is very respectable. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0375912/

Definatly one of the best britsh films of recent years. Layer Cake is alot sharper and smarter than Lock Stock, ****** et al. Very original too not your average East End ganster flick. The performances are brilliant, not your usual mocking of southerners which is the norm for these type of films. Its also got a cracking soundtrack! 
I gave it 10/10 on IMDB.

As above, it flies over the heads of Lock Stock and ****** - both of which i love. Layer Cake appeals in a completely different way, it was certainly my film of 2004. I got it on Monday and had forgotten how good the sound track was. She Sells Sanctuary to kick off.
