Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre (Guy Ritchie, Jason Statham)

This came out quietly, not heard of it till today. Hugh Grant back doing a similar part to how he was in The Gentlemen. Josh Hartnett back on the screen too. Not sure about Bugzy Malone, his acting was dire in The Gentlemen. Available to watch now.

looks fun. Is it me or has everyone aged loads over the last ten years or so apart from Jason Statham, who remains 30 years old?

I watched Four Weddings and The Gentleman around the same time and it was weird seeing Hugh Grant age.

Statham does seem like he has some of that Patrick Stewart DNA.

I'm always shocked at how old Grant looks now.

Cracking movie really good fun and doesn't take it self too seriously.

Hope they make a number cast really has some great chemistry going.

It's a pitiful movie that wastes all the talent and opporunity they had. I think the 3/10 is fair.

The fact it came out quietly on Prime probably speaks volumes

Not sure I’ll bother given the reviews..

Decided to watch it last night, starting messing around on the laptop after 20 odd minutes. Not very good.

I took one look at the information on Prime and how quietly it had come out and decided not to bother unless people raved about it - was pretty sure it was going to be terrible.

ChroniC · 8 Apr 2023 at 14:52

It was crap. I had to check that the film werent linked to the Gentleman because Grant just plays the same cockney or whatever that accent is he puts on.

I believe it's cinema release was delayed/pulled/cancelled in certain territories because the bad guys in the film are Ukrainian.

Didn't think it was that bad myself. Sort of a low budget British Mission Impossible. Certainly better than some of the Prime original films I've watched.

5/10
