nice photography, snappy dialog. Hugh Grant nearly unrecognizable. fun and light pot mafia tale. I think of Guy Ritchie as what Nicolas Winding Refn would be if Madonna had him neutered.

After thoroughly enjoying the Sherlock Holmes movies the dry spell isTL;DR - It has been a while that I have thoroughly and un-ironically loved a Guy Ritchie movie, King Arthur was trash but still fun and well Aladdin was middle of the road. After thoroughly enjoying the Sherlock Holmes movies the dry spell is over as The Gentlemen is Ritchie's style and storytelling firing on all cylinders, not as brilliant as Snatch but it is pretty close.

The Good
When Ritchie broke on the scene with gypsy boxing legends and diamond heists his character writing and dialogue writing were the two shining beacons amidst his interesting and energetic style. This movie does the same making the characters the primary focus dissolving most of the big name actors into the on screen personas we see and build connections with.
Hugh Grant pulls out all the stops overturning his sweetheart typecast since Notting Hill into a slimy reporter with a sharp tongue and greedy nature. Matthew McConaughey carves out a niche for himself in such a way that even in a morally questionable role he still comes off as likable making you want to root for his character. Hunnam seems to have got a sweet spot as a supporting role to flex his acting chops in the right way here, since he is likable in King Arthur but from a so bad it is good perspective.
Special props for Michelle Dockery, Colin Farrell and Henry Golding stealing the scenes even in the limited screen time they were given.
Ritchie's stylistic choices works fantastically along with a witty and sharp script in this case co written by Ritchie with Davies and Atkinson who have all worked together before.

The Bad
Very little is not entertaining in the movie. Maybe it could be a little slow the first 15 - 20 min, not in a slow burn kind of way just a little too restrained, but accelerates and picks up speed for the rest of it. Hopefully millennial and general short attention spans will give the movie more time than a cursory overview before deeming this movie boring, if that does happen well it is most definitely their loss.

The Gentlemen is a smart, sharp and entertaining watch that uses the Guy Ritchie's strength - riding the line of gritty realism and stylistic flair. If every Aladdin helps Ritchie makes a movie like this I am ok with that deal and will never again question his choice of directing something that makes no sense for Guy Ritchie to be involved with.… Expand

What really bogged this movie down for me though is Ritchie's persistence to veer away from his early style which he presumably, to some degree, returned to here. I get that he wanted to return to form without making yet another version of Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (both of which I liked, especially the former), but I'm quite not sure whether most of the choices he made here in order to render the film a refreshing feel worked together. Regardless, The Gentlemen is a good fun with enough clever touches to satisfy Ritchie's fans.

2020s most recent comedy gangster flick from English director Guy Ritchie can be described in one way and one way only:

Pure Ritchie magic!
The Gentlemen is, in my opinion, without a doubt the best film in Ritchies career since Snatch (2000). It shares many of the common traits of his previous work; with a complex narrative full of plot twists, an extremely colorful cast of characters, lots of quotable dialogue and the inevitability that everything will shortly spiral out of control. However unlike movies such as Snatch, and Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, The Gentlemen’s narrative is relatively easy to follow, which I’m sure will benefit audiences new to his style of filmmaking. The story is explained to us step by step by Hugh Grant’s devious investigator Fletcher, who adopts a Cockney accent (which is refreshing considering Grant has been typecast as a posh British romcom lead in the past). However as towards the end of the movie, it kind of feels like there is just an endless supply of plot twists that keep coming, some of which are contrived and become slightly tiring. There are also some really neat editing tricks that go much appreciated, and some small moments of just clever writing, like playing out a scenario only for you to realize that it was a figment of Fletcher’s imagination, and to see the scene play out again only vastly different.
I mentioned before that Ritchie’s films have always had a variety of colorful characters, but in the Gentlemen they are particularly memorable. From Mathew McConaughey’s ruthless but calculated Mickey Pearson, to Charlie Hunnam’s loyal and merciful Ray, every significant character is unique and exceedingly well acted. Many of the characters have some extremely enjoyable interactions with very well written dialogue, most of the highlights being Hunnam and Grant. The lines bounce off of each of them so well, and I found myself laughing quite frequently during their exchanges. I will say however, that Americans should be warned. A large majority of the humor might go over some of your heads, as it is based on the attitudes of members of English society, that aren’t often shown in movies. I saw a review from IGN that gave the film a meager 4/10, and I got the impression that they didn’t really know what they were talking about. Ultimately, the Gentlemen is lots of fun, and I recommend you check it out.… Expand

TheSaw my last movie yesterday in 2020 and I thought it was really great. The film can be found on Amazon Prime right now and is very cleverly structured, sometimes confusing and strange, especially at the beginning, but in a cool way. The individual characters play their roles believably and the rest of the act is very good. In addition, a top synchronization (I'll see it in the original sound in time), all associated voices fit, and a crude language. Matthew McConaughey as a drug lord and gangster strong as usual, but also people like Charlie Hunnam or Colin Farell, as well as Hugh Grant (strong performance, in a very strange way his character reflects the film quite well).

The film is a kind of action comedy with very strong scenes and with just under 2 hours not too long, at least at no point did I have the feeling of being presented unnecessary lengths. You are actually constantly excited while watching and you have to stay focused so as not to lose yourself too much at the beginning. Roughly speaking, it's about asserting oneself in the jungle of the underworld.

So overall I was thrilled, taking out well-placed action, the cool sayings and also a very good balance between quick storytelling and speed. Add the already mentioned good cast and the individual surprises in the film and you have a very good gangster film. The only negative thing I received is the figure of the Dry Eye, I couldn't believe his portrayal, because I liked Lord George better and the ending is a bit too "constructed and random" for me.

Ritchie is left with just a bit of style, while poetics, screenplay, dialogues and metacinema are now a copy of Quentin's ones. At least also his musical taste is still valid: "In Every Dream Home a Heartache", Roxy Music 1973.
