I really liked the movie, worth seeing if you never have. I hope this is good but I didn’t love that trailer. A little hokey.

Agree.

If you want to blow your mind watch Gandhi followed by Sexy Beast and you will realize Ben Kingsley is an acting giant amongst mere mortals.

Holy. Shit. Great idea for a prequel.

I wish I saw this earlier. I have another 150 minutes of Once Upon a Time in America. 

It's a LONG ass movie, but hard to turn off.

No no no no no.

Without Ray Winstone and Ben Kingsley the move wouldn't have been much, so I don't see how this will measure up in anyway.

Started watching this on a whim...had no idea it was a prequel.

Had no idea there even was a movie called Sexy Beast.

I like the show, but I never got the vibe that Don wasn’t in Gal and Aitch’s crew/ didn’t come up with them. An associate, an enforcer sure, but not close to them. I guess it’s not a very familiar prequel if Don isn’t a main character. 
 

The actor nailed Don’s mannerisms, and the show provides a believable backstory. But this character couldn’t exist in the real world. He’d get arrested every 5 minutes.
