The film tells of Tom Wright and his wife Anna, a couple who live in London. The couple discovered £ 220,000 in the deceased neighbor's apartment. They seem to have greed for the money as they took it to renovate their house, and soon the couple becomes a target for both the money owner and the thief who stole that sum.
This low-rent crime thriller's London setting never feels convincing... and the film's action-packed climax, which sees the couple fending off the bad 'uns using power tools, is even more far-fetched.
Good People provides the degree of entertainment one expects while sitting on a sofa watching a direct-to-video effort rather than the higher standards one sets for paying $10 for a movie ticket.
Good People grinds to its predictable, pat conclusion and betrays its generally solid performances and respectable artistic pedigree. Sometimes good people do bad things, sometimes they just make movies that start well and end badly.
This increasingly ramshackle thriller somehow manages to bodge many of its key plot points, leaving the narrative as badly maintained as the rundown houses it occupies.
