Sinopsis: Tras haber pasado una temporada entre rejas, Gal Dove vive ahora felizmente retirado en un chalet de la Costa del Sol española, junto a su mujer, a quien adora. Sin embargo, su felicidad se empaña con la llegada de Don Logan, un antiguo compinche que intenta convencerle de que vuelva a Londres para un último gran golpe. (FILMAFFINITY)

Nominado Ben Kingsley al mejor actor secundario. La interpretación de Kingsley obtuvo excelentes y unánimes críticas. (FILMAFFINITY)
----------------------------------------
"Película de factura discreta (...) Kingsley aterriza en la ficción y le basta con una secuencia memorable para impregnar la retina del espectador (...) electrizante presencia que pasa por encima de lagunas, baches narrativos (...) para convertirse en la base misma de la película: un trabajo de maestro" (M. Torreiro: Diario El País)
Atrapado por su pasado.Gal, un ladrón, vive un dulce retiro con su mujer española en una casita de Almería. Tostarse al sol en la piscina es todo lo que hace durante el día. Pero un enorme pedrusco que casi le arrolla anticipa problemas. Y pronto recibe la visita de Don, antiguo compinche bastante bruto, que le presiona para que participe en un nuevo golpe.
El personaje de Don es una perita en dulce que Ben Kingsley se apropia en un periquete. Resultado: fue candidato al Oscar al mejor actor de reparto (DeCine21).


AMG SYNOPSIS: Gary (Ray Winstone) is a former gangster who has made a modest amount of money from his criminal career. Happy to put his life of crime behind him, he has retired with his wife Deedee (Amanda Redman) to the sunny bliss of rural Spain, where he lives an idyllic life with his family and a few close friends. But Gary's contentment is ruptured by an unwelcome visitor from his past -- Don (Ben Kingsley), a former associate who has been hired to assemble a team of criminals to rob a heavily guarded bank. Don wants Gary in on the job, and is less than pleased by Gary's unwillingness to volunteer his services. What ensues is a battle of wills between the two men, with Don intimidating, prodding, and manipulating his onetime friend to get what he wants, forever changing the lives of those around him in the process. -- Rebecca Flint Marx
AMG REVIEW: The first half of Jonathan Glazer's psychological thriller Sexy Beast seems stolen straight out of Greek myth. At the film's outset, corpulent ex-gangland thug Gal and his wife, Dee Dee, are the picture of earthly contentment, living in their bone-white hacienda with a view of the sea and filling their days with basking by the pool and barbecues. Like a Fury descending on a hapless mortal, Don Logan descends on Gal and his Spanish Eden to cajole, badger, and bully him into helping on a big heist back in England. Gal and Dee Dee's dread and palatable tension over Don's imminent visit feels like an impending visit from the Grim Reaper. In the resulting psychological warfare, Gal -- whose bulky physique makes him look oddly feminine -- is utterly outmatched by Don (who looks like Anton LaVey in a leisure suit and who is a head shorter than his ursine adversary). Rigid, twitchy, and coiled, Don seems like he's one misspoken word away from an act of terrifying violence. Ben Kingsley is mesmerizing as Don Logan, who brings the act of swearing and verbal abuse to an exuberant art form. Unfortunately, once Don is dispatched halfway through the film, the movie seems to deflate. Once in Britain, Sexy Beast treads perilously close to the masturbatory camera trickery of a Guy Ritchie flick. Ian MacShane as Teddy Bass -- the architect of the heist and the uber-criminal of the movie -- conveys little of the menace and charisma of Don Logan. Of course, no one short of Darth Vader, Keyser Sose, or Satan himself could. -- Jonathan Crow
