Review of The Gentlemen (2020) by Marklaing1 — 22 Dec 2020
Bizarre casting, (Hugh Grant as a gay paparazzi stringer when he is a superb upper middle class twit, why fight it?), Matthew McConaughey completely miscast, almost everyone in the wrong roles here. No chemistry or anything between the American gangster and his beloved moll wife.
There were fun moments but how did the Black London boxing guys become expert with automatic weapons, especially when Colin Farrell just told us they're his pupils at a boxing gym? How did McConaughey survive a hhigh-speed crash with a lorry, with nary a scratch.
Why didn't someone in makeup shave that nasty rash of a beard off his face? The opening credits were the best moment, it was trying to be Snatch but was typically Richie overdone.
