Just caught up with Peter Bradshaw’s review of Guy Ritchie’s latest film and it’s very amusing and he just about carries off the central conceit, have a look.
It’s a strange thing about Guy Ritchie’s films, when LS&TSB first came out I don’t remember it being a such a terrible thing, it was all in the air at the time. You know Loaded, Euro ’96, Chris Evans, brown leather coats which if annoying were all mostly benign.
But it went sour very quickly with it getting overblown, in ads and a rubbish spin off show etc. I’ve never seen any of his other work mainly because GR is responsible for sustaining the career of Vini Jones.
Has there ever been a person less worthy of promotion than Vini Jones? Jones was a violent journeyman footballer; undeservedly the holder of several cups and trophies who then becomes a violent journeyman actor whose continuing career seems to be based on no discernable talent or charisma or anything really.

I'm a bit of a fanorak when it comes to comics - and never understand why Vinnie Jones was cast as Juggernaut in X Men 3- crazy!
