Kill Your Friends kicks off with the sound of cocaine being snorted, before some of that cocaine is licked up by a dog, and then finally the person doing the coke urinates on James Corden. As opening scenes go, it certainly grabs the attention. But the film then continues in that vein, endeavouring to shock and stun for its 100-minute run-time.
Trouble is, what initially appears outrageous quickly becomes tiresome, the film trying far too hard to startle when it should be concentrating on telling a good story about characters an audience might want to spend time with.
John Niven has written the script, adapted from his own 2008 book, which in turn was loosely based on his experiences as a record company A&R man during the Britpop explosion of the 1990s - though in the book the lead character also went on a killing spree, which Niven very much did not in real life.
