Extraordinary. Just watch. What a cool movie.

Bollocks.

I mean, a movie with gravity (dire things happening to protagonist characters that you like) and comedic moments, and action with a unique storyline. Guy Ritchie really does a good one here. Very Snatch-esque but with a little more order and compelling suspension. You kinda don’t know what’s happening until the end, but it ties together nicely, not leaving you with a question of “what did I just watch?” Masterfully done really.

Watched it last night after a friend suggested it. Right up there with the other Guy Ritchie films. Loved it.

I have been listening to the opening song he puts on the juke in the pub on repeat since I saw this movie. Such an awesome song.

Made me want to change to calling someone a "count" as my go to insult after watching this movie.

Really solid flick. Everyone I know that's seen it really enjoyed it, too.

Colin Farrell was fantastic. Shame he's had so many duds over the last few years, because he flexed in this film.

Took me a bit to get into it but glad I stuck it out. The last hour or so was fantastic.

Yeah, Farrell and Hugh Grant stole the show in this, it was a great flick. First movie I've actually liked Hunnam in as well.

I’ve been trying to find those sweet plaid sweatsuits since I saw it. Love them.

I've always wondered if Guy Ritchie's characters all exist in the same universe.

Would love to see Farrell’s Coach in a bit of a kerfuffle with Pitt’s Mickey O’Neil

Finally rented this last night on Prime. Not close to as good as Snatch, but I enjoyed it. Colin Farrell stole the show.

For Phuc's sake, this is an entertaining flick. Coach is a classic Ritchie character.

Shameless bump for likely the best movie I’ve watched in the past 5 years.

Not shameless at all. This is in my coveted list of movies I wish I could forget and watch anew.
