ReviewsEmpire - A bulked-up James McAvoy dominates the screen in this razor-sharp Glasgow smile of a black comedy, packed with aberrant sex, hard drugs and maximum David Soul., Time Out London - This punky adaptation of Irvine WelshÆs novel FILTH is a glossary of grimness, a dictionary of darkness. But it also dishes up humour thatÆs blacker than a winterÆs night in the Highlands and unpolished anarchy thatÆs true to WelshÆs out-there, frighteningly frank prose.
Additional InformationA scheming, corrupt and bigoted police officer Bruce Robertson (James McAvoy) will do anything to get a promotion. He sets about ruining his colleagues to ensure the promotion is his but he soon discovers that his constant lies and corruption may catch up with him. While investigating a brutal murder, Robertson sets about destroying the careers of the men around him by stealing their wives and revealing their secrets, all under the nose of the Chief Inspector. All appears to be going well until his past starts catching up with him and begins to struggle with his drug habit. Can Robertson maintain his hold on reality for long enough to achieve his goals or will he not be able to disentangle himself from the FILTH.
