Plot outline:
Quote:
Butler stars as One Two, a street-smart mobster who has learned to play both sides of the fence, and Wilkinson is playing the lethal head mobster, Lenny Cole, part of London's old mob regime, which is quickly losing ground to the wealthier foreign mob. Newton acts as One Two's love interest, Stella, an accountant with ties to the underworld, and Elba acts as Mumbles, One Two's partner. Bridges is playing Roman, an American trying to break into the music scene in London.
Seen it three times I sure as hell got it, but it still didnt made it a better movie. Its nice to see Ritchie try something new but he simply fails. At least in my humble opinion.
Ritchie obviously tried hard to add a layer of sophistication and twists in the storyline but fails, the film gets chocked due to that, and its sad 'cause he really had somes well ideas both with the reaction shots done in manga and stylish actions of strong and the chinese assasin.

It chokes if you put a Snatch-fan cap in the beginning. That's what I did. And literally walked out of the theatre in the middle of the movie. Now I'm a number #1 fan of it after watching a couple of times alone on DVD.
Yea Revolver, wasn't very good in my opinion either. Lock stock still ranks among my ultimate favourite films. I don't expect this to get up there. The charm of indie is vanished, but it will probably be very enjoyable
8 out of 10 dentists prefer zipfero to competing brands(fraich3 and Mutantius)!
My bad...again. What ever DVDrip's that are out there seems to be fakes.
I guess I will have to wait for this one then...I don't want to watch some crappy cam.
A thoroughly enjoyable film, contrived and pretentious with a few plot holes as is typical of Ritchie but much better then Revolver. 8/10
