Product Description
Product Description
London follows a group of hip, wealthy, party-loving twenty-somethings in this twisted and obsessive love story about Syd (Chris Evans) and his former girlfriend London (Jessica Biel). When Syd finds out about a going away party for London that he was not invited to, he crashes the party with his new acquaintance Bateman (Jason Statham) to confront his former lover one last time.
Amazon.com
London, a film written and directed by Hunter Richards, warns against the allure of cocaine as protagonist Sid (Chris Evans), loses his girlfriend, London, and also loses his mind from drug use. Set mostly in a bathroom at London's going away party, the film features Sid doing coke with various model-type chicks, while mustering up courage to go downstairs and make peace with his ex-girlfriend. London (Jessica Biel) instigates their breakup after sleeping around and failing to help Sid's depression, culminating in his suicide attempt. Sid's angst builds in the bathroom, as he gets higher, creating a tortured scenario reminiscent of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. Finally, Sid faces London and starts a chaotic brawl. A side-plot involves Bateman (Jason Stathham), the coke dealer devoted to counseling Sid. Bateman soothes Sid's pain by describing the real frustration of impotency, manifesting itself in a love for S&M clubs. With such a simplistic plot, London is as devoid of logic as the lifestyle it glamorizes, making its pointlessness ingeniously vapid. Sid's quest for sanity is difficult to empathize with, since hes an egotistical, drug-addled loser. Sid repeatedly questions the existence of God between scenes of his failed relationship with London, obviously linking his heartbreak and his loss of faith. At its worst, London portrays a shallow, juvenile couple's inability to resolve personal issues. At best, London cleverly pits cocaine's sex appeal against the doomed fates of those who fall prey to it.--Trinie Dalton

- Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2014I'd buy anything Chris Evans is in regardless of how I feel about Jessica's acting abilities. I think this movie is dark and rather cool. A lot of us can relate to being in messed up unhealthy relationships or taking a downward spiral after a bad breakup so this movie takes you on that kind of trip - only darken and worse than most have experienced I hope! Showcases Evan's acting abilities before Puncture proved he was a stellar actor. Worth the watch with some wine. LOL
- Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2007After three months, I finally opened up London--not the city--the movie, starring Chris Evans (Fantastic Four, Cellular), Jessica Biel (7th Heaven, Stealth), Jason Statham (The Italian Job, Crank).
Thinking this movie would be as boring as all hell, and to be perfectly honest, buying it because of the names on the cover. And let's face--Jessica Biel...wow!
Boring was something this movie was not.
It's a love, a real world, backstreet love story. Sex, drugs and boos are part of the ultimate package.
Syd (Evans) is on the verge of self-destruction with drugs and boos, realizing his lost relationship with London (Biel) was harder on him than he thought it would be.
I've never seen Jessica Biel in such raw form; aside from the fantastic acting by the entire cast, the storyline written by director, Hunter Richards.
This is love on the breaking point of all breaking points.
I can highly recommend this movie and be very confident that if you do rent or buy it, you'd be satisfied with the result.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2012I liked this mostly unheard of movie. I saw it on cable one night and I was going through a rough break up and this movie is all about that and more. It gets deep into subjects and drug abuse but it hits home on so many more levels just as being a modern human being in relationships and how easily taking one person away can leave you feeling lost when really we came into this world alone and we will leave the same way hopefully in peace.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2006With its Pulp Fiction-like dialogue and wit, London does a brilliant job of grabbing and maintaining the viewer's attention throughout, especially in the flashback scenes. It is an intelligent movie that requires your attention to detail to appreciate it satrical and dark humor. The themes may be common, however, this movie is completely original in its presentation. Tired of Will Farrel and American Pie-like humor? Give London a try and experience a smarter and more artistic form romantic heart break.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2014Syd (Chris Evans) is obsessive, manipulative and controlling. London (Jessica Biel) wants Syd to be more committed to their relationship. The film takes place six months after their breakup. London's friends are holding a going away party for her and Syd's not invited. Syd decides to crash anyway with his dealer Bateman(Jason Statham) in tow. Once at the party Syd and Bateman spend the majority of the party in the bathroom ingesting cocaine and commiserating about love and sex and psychoanalyzing the rotted carcass of Syd and London's busted union. "London" is a watchable enough film but you get a sense of deja vu that it doesn't really have anything new to say that hasn't been said better before. You also don't get a sense in what London saw in the volatile Syd in the first place. I guess you can watch it for the pretty people and Statham doing a change of pace as an impotent financier who supplements his income by dealing drugs on the side. This isn't a bad film but there's nothing really compelling on hand unless you're a fan of the main stars.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2012I couldn't find this movie anywhere. Only here, and i was so happy to. Now getting it was a mistery to me. Was I gona get in good conditions, was it worth the cheap pay. IT WAS!!! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
What a great movie to find and buy.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2025This was more like a stage production than a movie. Long dialogues that go nowhere. Who cares about really good looking people having terrible lives?
- Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2016Very serious movie. Chris Evans and Jessica Biel give incredible performances. There are a lot of topics in this movie that make you really think about things.
