City Rats tells the stories of 8 people, whose lives are connected, all going through a personal crisis of some kind.
The stories include, Jim (Tamer Hassan) is about to throw himself off a tall building, but spots a suicidal woman on an adjacent rooftop, so united by their suffering, they realise that there must be another way out. A down-on-his-luck artist, Dean (Ray Panthaki), finds his muse in the unlikeliest of places, the prostitute living upstairs, a gay man takes his deaf-mute-autistic-gay brother to Soho in an effort to help him lose his virginity and Pete (Danny Dyer) is a man haunted by his shadowy past when an old friends mother asks him for help finding her missing son, but he buried his corpse in a suitcase months ago!
City Rats is an odd movie, it keeps you watching, but I wouldn't say its good, but keeps you watching enough to see it through. If your expecting to see Dyer and Hassan back on The Business form, you will be disappointed! OK it your at a loose end!
Here is the trailer...
