Guy Ritchie
Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre is not a movie we need per se, but for those enthusiasts of Guy Ritchie, it might have been just enough for them.
MI6 agent Orson Fortune and his team of operatives recruit one of Hollywood’s biggest movie stars to help them on an undercover mission.
Wrath of Man fails to make the most of an inventive story structure and a typically solid Statham performance, smothered under layers of bland masculinity.
A cheeky, old-fashioned return to form, The Gentlemen arrives at the right time in Guy Ritchie’s career.
In The Gentlemen, a British drug lord tries to sell off his highly profitable empire to a dynasty of Oklahoma billionaires.
Guy Ritchie has joyously updated King Arthur with the same distinctive style as his Sherlock Holmes movies. Purists may want to look away.
Get ready for a division, because King Arthur: Legend of the Sword is directed by Guy Ritchie. I’m sure some of you have already left, siting the modernist spin and frantic energy that Ritchie injects into his films as turnoffs, while others are sitting there gleefully awaiting a good time at the theaters.
Even though he’s often stereotyped as solely a director of inferior British gangster films, based on his first two releases Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch, Guy Ritchie is actually more of an experimental director than you may initially realise. Even though his early films were successful and enjoyable guilty pleasures, Ritchie had something of an insatiable need to be taken seriously, looking towards the European arthouse for inspiration. His third feature Swept Away, starring his then wife Madonna, was a remake of a satirical 1974 Italian film not widely known to international audiences.
