RocknRolla (2008)

RocknRolla: Directed by Guy Ritchie. With Gerard Butler, Tom Wilkinson, Thandiwe Newton, Mark Strong. When a Russian mobster orchestrates a crooked land deal, millions of dollars are up for grabs, drawing in the entire London underworld into a feeding frenzy at a time when the old criminal regime is losing turf to a wealthy foreign mob.

“Snake Eyes is too violent to be a kids movie and too stupid to present a grown-up plot. Itu0026#39;s cartoonish in all the wrong ways, without ever being surprising or even that entertaining. Lots of great talents are sacrificed to revive a dead franchise, and while the previous G. I. Joe films were stupid but lots of fun, this one is too high on stupid and too low on fun. Samara Weaving is in it for a hot minute, and focusing on her might have brought so much levity this film desperately needed, but alas the film is centered around Henry Golding who fails to bring much to the table. I give this film some points for some good action scenes, but none of them were good enough to justify my trip to the cinema.”
