The Gentlemen

Guy Ritchie comes back to the crime genre, a little older and a little rusty. There's a lot of familiar tics here, together with one or two decent performances (Hugh Grant has a lot of fun as a most unrelaible narrator, and Colin Farrell again shows he's always more interesting when he's Irish). But there's also somewhat stiff turns from McConneghey and Hunnam, and while the plot never really goes completely off the rails (although it gets pretty dicey both with some gratuitous racism and a not-particularly great role for Michelle Dockery) it's more a familiar bunch of genre exercises rather than anything particularly new or fresh.
