Layer Cake’s story is of a heightened level of complexity, and therefore takes a while for us to comprehend what is going on because of Matthew Vaughn’s ruthlessly fast paced thrillers that prove to never owe a dull moment, this applies most efficiently in this film which proves to be an honorable foundation to jump start the grande performances to come of the then young Daniel Craig. Layer Cake is a beauty in its stylistic transitions, quick storyline and interesting characters but it’s lack of character development for one or two of its personnages projects it away from superstardom. 67/100
