There’s something about Guy Ritchie British tough-guy movies that I just can’t resit. Sherlock Holmes, Snatch, King Arthur: Legend Of the Sword — these are movies that amuse me to no end.

So, if you’re like-minded, you’ll love The Gentlemen just as I did. It’s a fast-paced gangster movie fraught with frenetic dialogue and cuts that will give you whiplash.

Matthew McConaughey plays Michael Pearson, a very successful American marijuana manufacturer who has cornered the British market. Charlie Hunnam plays Ray, Michael’s assistant. Jeremy Strong plays Matthew, a rich entrepreneur looking to buy Michael’s business. Hugh Grant plays Fletcher, a private investigator looking to blackmail … well, whomever he can. Finally, Colin Farrell plays Coach, a fight coach who unexpectedly gets entwined with all of these people.

As you can imagine, there is a great deal of violence, tons of twists, more than a few moments of treachery, and plenty of inappropriate humor. The movie looks great, as all Guy Ritchie movies do, with incredible set pieces, costumes, and locations.

The real heart of this movie though is the charm that each and every character exudes. No matter how shady they are, no matter how awful they are, they are all charming in their own way. You’ll notice that most of the actors listed above have built a career round not only their acting prowess, but also their innate charm.

This movie won’t change your life or improve the human condition, but it will provide an extremely fun time and wholly entertain you.
