One night. Two men. Three hostages…No clue.
Ajay (Ray Panthaki) and Shaan (Adeel Akhtar) are good friends with problems. Their latest is trying to pull off a spontaneous robbery in a garage convenience store and discovering they will need to remain there for the next six hours.
After a sympathetic masking-taped binding of the manager and a diet-Coke-loving client, they are left with Levi (Vicki McClure), the feisty, under-utilised, sharp-talking shop assistant.
The eclectic and nutty stream of night time visitors keeps the film amusing as do Panthaki and Akhtar, who bumble around affectionately, playing off each other, and keeping the pace moving.
Director Keri Collins and Director of photography Stil Williams have done a great job, managing to turn a one-set film into a visually and psychologically interesting, as well as funny place.
