Turkish Delight

Rating: 9/10 (9 August 2013)

Guy Ritchie delivers once again with a funny, thrilling, gangster film the way they are meant to be done. Jason Statham as 'Turkish', the unlicensed boxing promoter who gets pulled in over his head by the ruthless Brick Top (Alan Ford, an excellent performance), is brilliant. Vinnie Jones is also perfect as Bullet Tooth Tony in his interactions with the bumbling diamond heist in which it seems he is the only competent figure. I was a little disappointed by Brad Pitt though and would prefer in future if Ritchie would stick to the more authentic cast of Brit gangsters he normally uses who can at least get the accent right. All in all still a brilliant film and a must see for any Ritchie fan or otherwise.
