If you like Guy Ritchie's films you will probably enjoy yet another variation on his patented crooks betraying crooks formula which can be traced all the way back to Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The Gentlemen is just another reprise of that film.
Matthew McConaughey is an American who runs a big marijuana growing empire in England. He decides he wants out of the business and makes a deal with a rich American billionaire to sell his pot business and retire with his hot wife played by Michelle Dockery (wearing very high high heels). Dockery for as good looking as she is plays a very tough cookie. Let the double crosses commence particualy with the involvement of a shady private investigator played by the amusing Hugh Grant.After lots of tough guy talk and the usual outrageous violence that Guy Ritchie specalizes in it all comes to a conclusion. As is typical you almost have to keep a score card of who is doing what to whom in a Guy Ritchie film.
For a Guy Ritchie film there's really nothing new here but I suppose it's a decent enough times killer with emphasis on the killer part since lots of people get knocked off throughout this film.
Written by Guy Ritchie, the running time is 113 minutes.
