        @benfraserlee -- looked at your review. the words "unmissable" and "british classic" don't seem to be in it?http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/sep/03/legend-review-tom-hardy-on-double-duty-in-cartoonish-krays-biopic …

        @davewiner @benfraserlee The point is that the review gave the film two stars, cunningly placed between the protagonists' ears in the photo

        @blahblahellis @benfraserlee It's not the quote. He gave the film two stars for The Guardian so they used the two stars. Crafty / deceitful?

        @i_am_softlad Ah I see! I thought the quote was from @benfraserlee. Yes, that's dodgy as all get out.

        @benfraserlee what was the context of this quote? Was it "the sun was unmissable, much like the British Classic Quadrophenia?

        @PeterBradshaw1 I stand corrected. Although I like to think of you and Ben as the Ronnie and Reggie of The Guardian.
