RocknRolla (2008)
7/10
Guy Ritchie doing his Gangster thing
2 September 2020
Whilst RocknRolla shares a number of elements with Guy Ritchie's pervious films "Lock, Stock and Twitter Smoking Barrels" and "Snatch", it doesn't quite have the humour and quotability of his earlier works.

A Stella cast revel in this London Underworld story of drugs, paintings, dodgy property deals and robberies.

With his recent return to the genre with "The Gentlemen", this is well worth checking out if you missed it first time around.

Emotional and Uplifting
2 September 2020
Dexter Fletcher shows his understanding of how to direct a film musical well before his recent successes of Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman. Sunshine on Leath has a number of story lines running through it that are both emotional and uplifting all set to a great soundtrack of The Proclaimers music.

Great performances from George MacKay, Peter Mullen and Jane Horrocks, to name a few, mean this slightly hidden gem is well worth it's 100min run time.

We find ourselves coming back to it time and again. Excellent!!
