DVD Review "ROCK-n-ROLLA" Score; B+
Guy Richie has a movie style that is distinctly his. The majority of his movies (the good ones anyway) all have this gritty feel to them and a very stylized filming. In a good way. He carves characters out well enough for us to follow them, although often his casting leaves some roles looking too much like each other which creates some confusion at times. Lots of crazy sequences in this one, like LOCK STOCK was. All around a group of characters that are ultimately tied into each others adventures and happenings, which by the end all the stories come together. I like his style and his idea of what is funny in his films. All the actors turn in great performances, which I think the writing helps a lot. The last 20 min of this is where it all comes together and secrets are revealed that lead to the main baddie's comeuppance. Fun stuff as long as you know what you are sitting down to for Richie film.
