Legend


From Academy Award winner Brian Helgeland (L.A. Confidential, Mystic River) comes the true story of the rise and fall of London’s most notorious gangsters, Reggie and Ron Kray, both portrayed by Tom Hardy in an amazing double performance. Legend is a classic crime thriller taking us into the secret history of the 1960s and the extraordinary events that secured the infamy of the Kray twins.

Tom Hardy has been one of my favorite up and coming actors for the longest time.  This movie only further solidified it.  He played both characters very well and the movie had a certain level of intensity from beginning to end every time that Hardy was on screen as one of the brothers.  There was some pacing issues and the movie did drag a bit at parts but all together, it was a pretty badass movie about gangsters and Tom Hardy did an amazing job.

I would definitely recommend people checking this one out.  It was an enjoyable watch although a little longer than it needed to be.
