CGiii Comment
Is this Scotland or the Wild West?
What a violent little sea-side town this is...ruled by a silver-haired Gangsta...and his dopey sons...
Mullan does Mullan - yet again - criminal, thuggish with a penchant for screaming his lines.
There's a 'gay' character...well, one minute he is - the next, he's not...he's probably pan rather than bi-sexual!
The whole thing is an inconsistent, contrived mess...definitely not a sea-side town worth visiting.
