Most helpful review RocknRolla

  • Disappointing - A parody of itself

    Rated - 2.0 stars  
    By Whitters (26 reviews) from London , 09 Sep 2008

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This film wouldn't be too bad if we hadn't seen it all before, and done a whole lot better. The characters are one dimensional, the script is like listening to someone read the Cockney Rhyming Slang dictionary out loud and the story is a bit thin with some very loose ends. I felt the plot was spoon fed to the audience, which is necessary for Amiericans but Mr Ritchie should really give his English audience a bit more credit.

    20 minutes into the film I was still forcing myself to enjoy it, but by that point the script had just become laughable and I started to mock the mockney. They kept forcing this notion of a 'RocknRolla' into the plot but it just felt like such a mad up piece of crap that you couldn't take any of it seriously. I left disappointed. More so that they plan on making a sequel with the same characters. Why oh why would you bother!?

    Wasn't expecting much from this so was pleasantly suprised. Butler was hilarious as Mr 1 2 and the rest of the cast were good aswell, very entertaining and straight forward film, would recommend.

    Love One-Two, love Bob's love of One-Two, Tom Wilkinson is excellent as usual, Toby Kebbell' s bod rivals Tyler Duerden - add in Idris and Thandie and what's not to love? Enjoy the character of Archie ( couldn't be anyone but Mark Strong), Don't over analyse and let the rhythm of Ritchie carry you through . . . As fun to watch as Snatch.

    How I came to select this is a mystery to me - a dreadful film which should never have been released.

    If you choose a Guy Richie movie, you know just what to expect. I did, and I got what I expected. Great entertainment of the genre I'd selected knowing the director is good at what he does. Waiting for more!
