Guy Ritchie may be the definition of a one-trick pony. Snatch was awesome. Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels was very good. Since then Revolver and RockNRolla have been pale comparisons to his previous successes. He continues to get top flight actors in to his snappy Brit crime dramedies, but the problem is that the stories just aren’t that compelling. All the performances in RockNRolla are fine. Idris Elba and Thandie Newton are great. There are even some laughs along the way, but it’s just not worth 2 hours of your time. That said apparently I still haven’t smartened up because I’m still excited to see what he does with the upcoming Sherlock Holmes revival starring Robert Downey, Jr. and Rachel McAdams.
I’m Mike D and I approve this message.
