For those of us who are fans of London gangster flicks like 'Snatch' and 'Lock, Stock, And Two Smoking Barrels'--'RocknRolla' hits a homerun. The story contains all the plot twists, crude dialogue, and idiotic crooks that we've come to love in Guy Ritchie's films.
It tells the tale of business deal between the London underground and the Russian mob. A "lucky" painting is involved. And at the heart of it all is a burnt out lead singer of a british rock group.
The performances are top of the line--the cast features Gerard Butler, Thandie Newton, and Tom Wilkinson (who is easily the most powerful character in the story).
It is currently in limited release and will go wide on Halloween. Keep an eye out for it, for Guy Ritchie fans it doesn't get any better than this.
