Never look at a film for historical accuracy, actually never look at any single source for historical accuracy. But films in particular are for entertainment,Legend
(Please note that my review is for the 2015 film about the Kray twins and not the Tom Cruise film from the mid 1980s)......
It is a good film, but flawed. Tom Hardy plays both Kray twins, but I didn't like the way that he portrayed Ronnie. He played the part of Reggie seriously, but he played Ronnie as some kind of one-liner-cracking comedy figure. I didn't like that at all, as I thought that he lacked the menace required to play someone like that. The film also plays fast and loose with the facts, and is extremely inaccurate and all over the place. Other than that, I enjoyed the film. I give it 7/10.
100% agree although i was surprised by the mention of the Orkneys although you might have been sleeping at that pointI went to see this in London recently. I saw it advertised on the side of a bus as being ”a modern day Gladiator” Utter rubbish! I fell asleep halfway through it and woke up 20 minutes from the end. The best part of the film for me were the end credits
