Summary: In London, a real-estate scam puts millions of pounds up for grabs, naturally attracting the attention of some of the city's scrappiest tough guys (Butler, Elba) its more established underworld players (Wilkinson), and others -- all of whom are looking to get rich quick.
Guy Ritchie rebounds after a string of mediocre films since his fan-favorite Snatch. Fitting right alongside Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, RocknRolla is a nonstop action comedy carried by Tom Wilkinson, Mark Strong and Gerard Butler.
Really liked this movie, it's Guy Ritchie doing what he does best. Butler, Elba and Hardy are funny as smalltime gangsters and Wilkinson plays the role he was born for. Great casting all over.
Great movie. The pace throughout the entire movie is very high, a really fast movie with a good story, a very good way of bringing it and a superb ending. Although in the beginning I feared it would become much too complicated. You really have to keep your head straight the first 15 minutes, but after that it really gets enjoyable and gets better and better towards the end. There are some more than remarkable characters in this movie and you will see that some scenes are a real fun to watch.
Everyone is right. It seems like its going to be another cool guy ritchie film until 30min in and you're starting to fall asleep. It's not that its bad, I was just expecting alot more action.
Guy Ritchie attempts to return to the glories of LOCK STOCK and SNATCH...but no such luck. It has all the right ingredients: low-life characters, interwoven storylines, Ritchie's customary flourish--but it never comes together. It's all competently done, but there's not much life in it, and it drags fearfully for much of its nearly-two-hour running time (and fuck the "lucky painting" gimmick). Tom Wilkinson, Mark Strong, and Toby Kebbell are all strong, but Thandie Newton bores. A major letdown.
