A great film, great story great acting, and original.
Plot summary
This movie is a modern-day version of 'The Prince and The Pauper,' where one man from a poor background ends up taking over another man's life from the entirely opposite end of the spectrum. Jamie Poulton--lead singer of tribute act 'Dive'--gets the opportunity to replace the iconic Donny Martin from the boy band D5 with ever-gripping twists and turns. This British film asks the question: could one man live in another man's shoes and actually get away with it!? Boyband D5's star-studded cast include hunky Luke White, DJ Tom Zanetti (who definitely has a helicopter at multiple times in the film),singers Jordi Whitworth and Shide Boss and TOWIE's Ricky Rayment, along with Eastenders beauty Danielle Harold as the leading lady, sizzling Jessica-Jane Stafford, Amar Adatia, and a flurry of gorgeous models and exciting cameos from the acting world and the music industry.

Great film modern crime.
So bad you just have to watch it!
From the DEA mini vans to the grossly overweight underwear models... this film is a disaster. I haven't listened to such bad dialog since...well, since never. Who ever wrote this and had the balls to submit it to a studio has got to be applauded for shear chutzpah. Sadly, its the only applause Dead Ringer will get.
I'm not him
There is nothing like a drug-crime-action film involving an aging British boy band. Okay, there is, it is called root canal.
A drug called Venom is being smuggled into the country. Cameo role Tom Sizemore didn't get the drug after he paid 3 million pounds. D5 boy band leader, Donnie Martin (Luke White) is the suspect. He is kidnapped by the bad guys and drugged and smacked around for the money/drugs. Then we get an odd backstory described in the film blurb. It seems the real Donnie Martin died in a car accident and this guy is an imposter who knows nothing.
Bai Ling was in the film less than Tom Sizemore. The movie was bad, but like a train wreck, it was hard to turn away. For some reason, it held my interest without being overly entertaining.
