Guy Ritchie's films are some of my favorites. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch are fantastic. Snatch would be one of my Top 25 of all time.
Saw it opening weekend and really dug it. Its not on the same level as Snatch BUT its definitely a return to form for Guy Ritchie. The whole cast is good but Hugh Grant steals the show. Really funny [Reply]
I love Lock, Stock and Snatch but the Gentlemen is missing something. The criminals aren't nearly as nasty and there is no reason given for rooting for mcconaughey's character. All the performances are fine - it just lacks the grit of his early work. Maybe Matthew Vaughn should have come back for this one. Neither Ritchie's or Vaughn's movies have been nearly as good as those early two films. [Reply]
Watched "The Gentleman" last night via my free movie sites and it took a little time to understand the premise of the movie. Came together pretty nice but I think the pace of the file was too long for the first 75% and rushed in the last 25%.
Overall a cool flick and really good acting from everyone.

7.5-8.0 out of 10
Fast endings (that's what she said) are pretty par for the course for Guy Ritchie. 8/10 [Reply]
