Becky and I went to see RocknRolla this weekend at the AMC theaters in Highlands Ranch, CO. The Fandango movie website at RocknRolla
describes the movie as follows:
“When a Russian mobster orchestrates a crooked land deal, millions of dollars are up for grabs, and all of London’s criminal underworld wants in on the action. Everyone from a dangerous crime lord to a sexy accountant, a corrupt politician and down-on-their-luck petty thieves conspire, collude and collide with one another in an effort to get rich quick…”
The Review
RocknRolla
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York hd is the new Guy Ritchie film that falls into the genre of Action Comedy, Caper and Crime. It’s not very funny by any stretch. The language is rough and there is more than one disturbing situation because of the fact that it deals with mobsters and a wild bunch of criminals. With a name like RocknRolla and Rock and Roll being known for sex and drugs, I guess the expectation of this movie is in the title itself only add some violence.
There were parts of this movie that I thought were done very well and actually liked, but other parts that I disliked. Becky would agree, but I don’t think she liked much about RocknRolla at all.
It’s too violent at times and the language is definitely European. I say that because so few movies I’ve seen done in Europe do not have bad language. From watching most European movies like this one, you would swear that the people who in invented the English language know longer know how to use it. However, it is a gangster movie and there are some violent scenes in this one.
This movie is definitely a mixed bag. You will have some people who will really like it and others who will hate it. I don’t think there will be many who are in between. I liked it enough to recommend it to a certain audience because this movie is not for just anyone. If you side with Becky most of the time be sure and take her advice. If you side with me on most of the films we go see than you might like this one.
