because it just seemed overwhelmingly arrogant of Ritchie to assume....all the characters were likable, the acting was solid, Tom Wilkinson is amazing in everything he does.... ... Full Review

RocknRolla is presented in a 1080p high definition transfer (2.40:1) and looks marvelous.
RocknRolla does have a bita Tarantino to it but I found it a rousing good time.
There are certainly some comedic moments that I enjoyed.

Mr. Ritchie's films just keep getting better and better, and RocknRolla is definitely one of his best and very much worth seeing.
One thing Ritchie is good at is the sly and surprising convoluted plot, and he satisfies with that element in RocknRolla, yet does not overdo it.

RocknRolla" is filled with small touches like that to keep the feature within striking distance of unpredictability.
The real magic of "Rocknrolla" is to watch Ritchie reclaim what so many accused him of losing: his impish awareness of criminal mischief.

The real magic of "Rocknrolla" is to watch Ritchie reclaim what so many accused him of losing: his impish awareness of criminal mischief.
Rocknrolla" is a hostile ride on the villain carousel, and while many sequences of the film hold generous comedic merit, the rest of the script settles into more uncomfortable places of troubled tone and cumbersome narrative lifting.
