excellent but...

Rating: Null/10 (14 December 2004)

excellent film but not near as good as Mr. Ritchie's tour de force. I refer to his re-make of 'Swept-Away'. Who knew the director could sing and direct? Like a pro ball player in two sports! Go figure. I mean, lock stock was good, he got me interested, got me thinking there was more to this guy than crooning blue heads in las Vegas. Along comes Snatch avec proof he's no flash in the pan but with SA he seals the deal. Swept II - all too late in the coming arriving not a moment too soon. & the casting, Madonna!!!!! How did he ever get her? I guess she needed the work. Hopefully this film will be re-released in IMAX 3D so we can really feel the force of this powerhouse classic.
A pen-ultimate piece of work. Sublime. All I can say is touchÃ© Lionel.
