Review of RocknRolla (2008) by Jason P — 08 Aug 2010
Guy richie is back aparantly, but for me when he does gangland england, hes never been away, yes swept away was a disaster, but not a film he should have made, but lock stock, snatch, were classics, and revolver, is just not apreciated, and shows that when david lynch confuses people, he is praised, richie does it hes slated, whatever revolver was it was certainly stylish.
now with rocknrolla were back in london, but id say more the london of producing partners mathew vaughns film,,,layer cake, than snatch, but certainly these charactors pop up and are vital to plot, again from the get go were in richies world, a great voice over which sets the scene perfectly, and introducing charactors.
again a lot of criss crossing of charactors throughout. and comes together quite nicely when the end credits near, gerald butler in a way replacing vacant jason statham, is a typical richie charactor, who leads the plot along with various others, including bad businessman played by tom wilkinson, superb comedy and edgy moments combined throughout, with the plot running along smoothly, great score also, and violence, great, looking at this, theres more in the works, following charactors created in this film, especially the so called rocknrolla of the piece, cant wait.
