Instead of trying to capture the spirit of '77, director Alex Cox opts for the (literal) death of the punk scene, offering an unglamorous depiction of the sordid demise of Sex Pistols' bassist Sid Vicious (Gary Oldman). The young Oldman soars above everyone else but, 15 years on, this feels like a shallow film about shallow people.
