Gripping, intense and with a razor-sharp wit, this marks Fletcher as one to watch.

With a concept and influences consciously in mind; fine performances by Creed-Miles, Poulter, and Williams; and approving cameos...Fletcher is able to put his best foot forward in this creditable debut.

[Fletcher] injects new marrow into some creaky bones.

Why can't all British crime dramas be so well written and well acted, and have a splash of comedy as confident as this?
March 24, 2012
It wears its lion heart firmly on its sleeve with bouts of good humour and sense, making it impossible not to be drawn into its rugged charm.

There's no faulting Fletcher's unfussy, quietly impressive directorial style. A solid start.
March 14, 2013
There's a lot more to this likeable crime flick than your usual dunderheaded Danny Dyer vehicle.
March 23, 2012
Suspenseful, exhilarating and genuinely moving, galvanised by strong performances and breathlessly orchestrated action sequences.
March 22, 2012
Fletcher has fashioned a deft, likeable addition to a crowded genre, the cockney comedy thriller. It will be good to see how he fares when he moves on.

Dexter Fletcher doesn't overplay the cowboy angle. Instead, he puts most of his efforts into creating a believable dynamic between the father and his sons, and it's in this tangled skein of shyness, suspicion, loyalty and love that the film's heart lies.
March 22, 2012
Directed with flair by Fletcher, Wild Bill is more affecting family drama than conventional gangster pic and it's an outstanding achievement.
September 13, 2012
An unusually affecting movie, with pitch-perfect comic moments, a lot of heart, and a beautiful final shot that acts as a crowning achievement for Creed-Miles.
