Review of Legacy

Legacy (I) (2010)
9/10
An engaging psychological thriller which is brilliantly crafted, acted, and directed.
1 May 2010
Legacy, written and directed by Thomas Ikimi, is an incredibly engaging and unsettling psychological thriller which deals with a soldier, Malcolm Grey, trying to come to terms with his past traumas.

Thomas Ikimi creates an incredible story almost entirely within one room, and Malcolm's mind. Ikimi creatively uses media within the film, such as newspapers and television to create the film's context.

The entire cast is stellar, and Idris Elba, who stars as Malcolm Grey, is especially good, bringing full believability to the story. Overall, the film is meticulously made from top to bottom, and I certainly would like to see it again. I recommend it to nearly any viewer, who enjoys a gripping and intense film.
