I really enjoyed RocknRolla, it’s a fun caper with more humour than violence. Guy Ritchie gives a clear insight into what is going on in modern London and it’s many types of criminal activity.
There are old school gangsters, a russian billionaire,
a rock star psycho, a sexy crooked female accountant,
small time crooks, drug addicts and indestructable
russian heavies, all interweaving to make a very entertaining film.
Gerard Butler as the goofy and hapless but very likeable One-Two leader of The Wild Bunch, who want to get into the action, gives a great performance as do all the cast. Fast moving scenes, lots of double dealing and a good ending.
I am really looking forward to the sequel and i hope Gerard returns in it, because he shines in this movie
as always.
I think RocknRolla is genius. If you closely watch how all the subplots mesh together, it works line a well-oiled wheel. The music adds another touch of spice to the already enjoyable direction. I’ve never seen a Guy Ritchie movie before so have nothing to compare it with, but I enjoy watching RnR. Gerry’s performance is quite fun and I appreciate him sharing that One Two’s personality is close to his own. I got the DVD last week and have watched it several times since and find new things to enjoy with each viewing.
Gerard Butler has been named the best British actor in Hollywood in a poll by DVD rental service LoveFilm, beating a number of high-profile stars, including Christian Bale and Kate Winslet.
Gerard Butler had a chaperone to stop him eating cake. The 'Law Abiding Citizen' actor's co-star Jamie Foxx took great pleasure in mocking the Scottish hunk as he struggled to stay in shape ahead of filming a nude scene for the movie.
Caption: Gerard Butler Premiere screening of 'Law Abiding Citizen' held at The Grauman's Chinese theatre Los Angeles, California .... GERARD BUTLER is glad he's been linked to a string of Hollywood beauties - because the false rumours have kept his real-life romances out of the public eye.
Forget stretch limos, red carpets and fancy hotel rooms. It seems the true guage of whether you've made it onto the Hollywood A-list is whether you have a man to dispose of your chewing gum.

THE JURY IS AN EXCELLENT BBC TV SERIES !!! IT SHOWCASED THE DEPTH OF EMOTIONAL TRAUMA OF JOHNNIE/GB. I ASSUME HE HAD MUCH BACKGROUND TO PULL FROM FOR THIS PERFORMANCE !!!
IMHO - " 300 " IS A POWERFUL HISTORIC BALLET !!! ALTHOUGH GEARED FOR THE " FAN BOYS " IF ONE DIGS DEEPER IT SUCCEEDS IN TELLING A POWERFUL STORY OF HONOR !!!
This is a very old joke which was made into a really funny short film. Gerry Buller is great as always. However, the film is sexually in nature and may not be for everyone.
