Review: "RocknRolla"

DateWednesday, November 12, 2008 at 7:52AM | By AuthorJoseph Bélanger

Seen on: November 1, 2008

The players: Director: Guy Ritchie, Writer: Guy Ritchie, Cast: Gerard Butler, Tom Wilkinson, Thandie Newton, Idris Elba, Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges, Mark Strong

Facts of interest: None.

The plot: A lot of money and a valuable painting are up for grabs in London, and everybody in the city's underground world seems to be after the same thing.

Our thoughts: Boys will be boys, even when they’re men who haven’t been boys for a very long time. They like to get their guns out and smack ‘em around in the other boys’ faces, all in an effort to prove who’s the baddest boy on the playground. It doesn’t matter to them that the playground has progressed into the entire city or that the guns have gone from plastic toys to the real deal.
