He’s a RocknRolla

I think Guy Ritchie may have found his mojo again with RocknRolla. He wisely has re-embraced the British ganster film genre (that Revolver fiasco so doesn’t count!), which he so deftly portrayed in Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The ensemble cast this time around has Tom Wilkinson as the big boss, Jeremy Piven and Ludacris as some amateurs, Thandie Newton as the cold-hearted fence, and Gerard Butler as a boxer caught in the middle.

Trailer Check:

And turns out today, that the film has an awesome opening sequence created by Danny Yount. Apparently, Yount is the mastermind behind several title sequences I enjoy, including the sequence for “Six Feet Under”.

RocknRolla opens in NY/LA/London on October 8th and worldwide on October 31st.
