Smokin'

Rating: 8/10 (9 August 2013)

A funny, enjoyable gangster film in which Ritchie manages to juggle the various characters and story lines effortlessly as they weave in and out. As Brit gangsters in over their heads after going heavily in debt to some hard men the roles were brilliantly acted as one bad decision leads to another until everyone is seriously out of their league. All the actors delivered stellar performances with Vinnie Jones being particularly good making you wish you got to see more of him. Always entertaining in Ritchie's unique style the script is as good as the filming and the violence is done to perfection. Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels is gangster done right and one film I would definitely recommend.
