Entertainment Reviews:
An ungainly yet strangely captivating oddity, LONDON ROAD snags your attention from the get-go in the manner of any razor-edge experiment: By making you wonder, what on earth' As soon as that question is answered, however, you’re hooked...

The film is adapted from a stage play, and it shows in every frame.

It’s a valuable record of a community in crisis, rendered vivid and unforgettable by literally making it sing. -- Grade: A-

Making full use of the panoramic possibilities that film allows, Norris has widened out his perspective to up the emotional stakes while also deepening one's sense of an enclave that risks erosion from within faced with the prospect of a murderer.

Product Description:
This musical about the real-life 2006 "Suffolk Strangler" murders in Ipswich, England, takes its lyrics from verbatim testimony from the town's residents. The story focuses on a provincial single mom (Olivia Colman) who suspects a new arrival is behind the killings, and who later tries to help her community recover from the tragedy. Adapted from Alecky Blythe's stage musical, LONDON ROAD was directed by Rufus Norris and features a cameo by Tom Hardy as an oddball cab driver.
