The Gentlemen (2019)
Gangsters donโt care for your political correctness.
Presentation:
It's a Guy Ritchie film, it's going to be moderately offensive. Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam and Colin Farrell were meant to do a gangster film on marijuana dealing. McConaughey is magnetic but I think Hunnam kinda steals the show as a charismatic drug dealer. This film lets your guard down, use a few cuss words, some political incorrect language, throw your hair back and put your feet up. It has the same appeal as Peaky Blinders, glorifying European gangsters and hustling. But this one has style and has a bit of lighthearted pep in its step that makes you root for the bad guys the whole time.
Conclusion:
I can see some people being offended by this film, maybe you should light one up. So then why are you watching this marijuana dealing film? It's a snide chortle that is not meant for some of the uptight easily offended people that cannot differentiate playful banter and reality. It's lighthearted gangster shenanigans in a posh British setting.
