I thought the films Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch were very good films, both about London gangsters.
Ritchie has now finished a movie called RocknRolla, also about London gangsters.
He was reported as saying that the paying public better like it as he has already written a sequel.
All of the movies that he made that weren't about London gangsters have bombed; Swept Away comes to mind.
He does have flashes of directorial brilliance; the scene in Snatch were the Lurchers are hunting the hare, filmed in slow motion with an excellent sound-track comes to mind, but, what is it with him?
Why can't he make a decent film about something other than London gangsters. If he makes the sequel, that will be four movies with the same subject.
