FIRST LOOK – Guy Ritchie’s Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre

I just saw this came through on Flipboard and I'm immediately excited for it! I love a good action comedy and Guy Ritchie's always got a great ensemble cast for his movies. I've enjoyed Jason Statham since seeing him in the original Transporter and he's a lot of fun to watch in action flicks... so …

FlixChatter Review: Wrath Of Man (2021)

The reason I was curious to see a screener of this is for the Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham reunion, which is their fourth since Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch and Revolver. I haven’t seen that last one, and I barely remember the first two, but I like Ritchie’s The Gentlemen, so I …

FlixChatter Review: The Gentlemen (2020)

I'd say Guy Ritchie is an acquired taste… you could even say he's one of those love-it-or-hate-it filmmaker, which means you either love or hate his fast-paced, at-times frenetic style, and I'm mostly talking about his gritty British gangster films, so the family-friendly Aladdin is obviously an exception. For the most part, I like his …

FlixChatter Review: Disney’s live-action ALADDIN (2019)

Can you believe it that the original Aladdin animated feature came out 27 years ago? To be honest, I barely remember it as I was more into the Princess movies growing up (esp. Sleeping Beauty and The Little Mermaid). When they first announced they're working the live-action remake, I was skeptical, which wasn't helped at …

FlixChatter Review: The Man from U.N.C.L.E (2015)

I saw this at a very early press screening three weeks ago but there was an embargo to even tweet about it. By now I could barely remember much about Guy Ritchie's movie, but if I were to describe it in one word, it'd be frothy. Just like Mission Impossible, this movie is based on a 1960s TV …

Music Break & Scenes Spotlight: Guy Ritchie’s Rocknrolla

I quite like Guy Ritchie's frenetic style. Most of his films have a cool vibe and I think his best work is when he tackles the London underworld. His humorous gangster movies always feature a great cast and witty dialog, and Rocknrolla is no different. His movies aren't for everyone though, I remember dragging some …
