A strong ensemble cast with Hugh Grant like you’ve never seen him before. Plus Ritchie proves why he’s the guv’nor of the British Gangster flick Review Next Best PictureGuy Ritchie does wonders with this riveting, clever tale of a flamboyant drug criminal underground. It’s stylish and exceedingly funny with a colourful cast of characters portrayed by a foray of skilled high profile actors. I regret not being able to catch this film in theatres, just an entertaining ride thru and thru Audience reviewer
