A Drug Kingpin Worries Over His Imminent Regicide In 'The Gentlemen'
Guy Ritchie returns to the genre he made his bones on, and the film's "rigorous and largely circular" plot is fun; more fun than McConaughey's undercooked performance, anyway.
The genie is out of the bottle. The motormouthed magician of whom I speak is Guy Ritchie. finds the unlikely director of v.2019 released from Disneyland to return to his distinctly loquacious crooks played by distinctly memorable actors. It's the milieu that made him, and still the one that uses his gifts for language and misdirection best. If hadn't been so good (and so sadly underseen), I'd say he should never be allowed to make a movie for more than $50
