The Gentlemen
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8...4/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0

Stumbled across this movie this past weekend.
Very pleasantly surprised.

Reminded me of Snatch and Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels.

Turns out - written by the same guy

Guy Ritchie is only capable of making stylized British gangster movies so, it should be entertaining at least.
Did you have to turn-on subtitles to understand any 'pikey' and Scotish accents?

It is classic Guy Ritchie. There were a couple of weird Brit slang phrases that they captioned but nothing as bad as Brad Pitt the Pikey.

Saw it and enjoyed it. Much better than his last one RockaRolla.

Two words: Michelle Dockery.

Very enjoyable movie...

Hugh Grant was unrecognizable and brilliant.

The wife and I enjoyed this. Definitely worth a watch and yes, classic Guy Ritchie.

I love the Guy Ritchie movies. Revolver didn't seem to fit with the others he made prior but The Gentlemen was quite enjoyable.

Loved it. I tend to like these types of Guy Ritchie movies.

Watched this on the plane today and thought it was great. But I'm a sucker for British slang and humor. I also loved Snatch and Lock Stock.

This was a fun 2 hours.

I second this.
I had to look it up to see who it was and was shocked.
I’d only ever seen him in crummy chick flicks before.
Dude did a phenomenal job.
