The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
 
I've been waiting for a Guy Ritchie movie that takes me back to Lock, Stock or Snatch. I'm cautiously optimistic here.

saw this trailer today too

it looks like a better 'inglorious basterds'

I loved a lot of IB, but QT has to over think things and ruin good movies with self indulging decisions

I'm definitely gonna watch this in April

That to me looks great. I like Guy Ritchie movies and throw in Henry Cavill and Alan Ritcherson...

That looks like a fun movie.

This looks fun!

Did any of you ever see SISU? I caught it on Netflix. WWII story about a gold miner from Finland I think and how he absolutely ****s up a ton of Nazis in various creative ways. It's unrealistic as hell and a total blast. Has a real Tarantino feel to it, but it's only like an hour and a half:

I saw it as "Dirty Dozen - The Comedy Version." And that's not a bad thing.

Cavill is awesome. Looking forward to it.

I have the book, but haven't gotten around to reading it.

I wanted to like this movie but really ended up hating it.

Totally in. Richie is right up there with Scorsese and Fincher in my opinion.

Snatch is probably my all time favorite of his but all of his movies are great.

Brad Pitt at his best...

The look most people get on their face when Pitt talks is the look I get on mine when Toney talks. I think I get the nouns and perhaps a verb here or there but....it's hopeless.

Pretty cool documentary on the subject

Did anyone give this flick a shot? By the lack of talk about it, I'd guess "no".

They're talking about this movie being a hardcore flop, and that's a shame because I feel Guy Ritchie is a better filmmaker than he gets credit for being. I'm a Cavill and Ritchson fan as well, so that's a double shame.

I'll watch it whenever it streams. After Dune, I'm on strike from going to the theater. Maybe forever. :grr:

I think GR is okay. When he hits (L, S, and 2SBs and Snatch), it's glorious. But his misses are bad and there have been more of those than hits in my opinion. I will definitely watch this one, but not a a theatre.

Rock n' Rolla is good as well. I don't think hits the high notes of Snatch LS2SB but worth a watch if you're a fan.

Good call. I forgot about that one.

Looks like a movie I'd watch and enjoy! IN MY LIVING ROOM.

BigRichard 05-02-2024 09:02 PM

Just got back from it... enjoyed it. It definitely wasn't a typical Guy Ritchie movie. You never really get to know the characters much and it is kind of straight forward... good guys want to kill lots of Nazis while accomplishing their mission... outside of a few small hurdles that get thrown in their way they succeed. End of story. It was fun as they were having fun killing Nazis...

tmax63 05-03-2024 06:39 AM

War department and I watched it a couple days ago. We both enjoyed it. It made us chuckle fairly often. They could of done a bit more character development but being based on fact it was still fun.
