The Gentlemen

Sam and I went to Vue in Eltham tonight to see Gut Ritchie's latest film The Gentlemen.

I wasn't really sure what to expect with this one, the trailer had looked interesting and I hadn't done any background research on it.

The plot on paper is simple: An American expat tries to sell off his highly profitable marijuana empire in London, triggering plots, schemes, bribery and blackmail in an attempt to steal his domain out from under him.

The film itself is marvellous. Ritchie has a unique style and the way The Gentlemen was constructed was great fun. Difficult to say too much without putting in spoilers. All of the case are brilliant especially Hugh Grant. There are some real laugh out load moments and the whole thing is very irreverent.

I would recommend this film unless you don't like the word c**t!
