Ritchie topped with Snatch then fell off a cliff.



If directing hugely successful Sherlock Holmes movies with RDJ as the lead is falling off a cliff, I'd think most directors would like to have that happen to them.

RocknRolla is solid as well, though not nearly as good as Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

Lock Stock is Ritchie's best achievement IMO. I liked Snatch, but it was just the same gags and jokes from LS, but with actual movie stars. And these two films were the last time I was able to stomach Jason Statham.

I like the Sherlock films alright, but it seems like GR too often falls back on his fast movement camera tricks too often. It's like he's incapable of making a movie that wouldn't induce seizures.

They made lots of money but they were nowhere near as good as Snatch.
