RocknRolla

I know most of you have seen Lock, Stock, And Two Smoking Barrels from Guy Ritchie, but this steps it up a notch. I can’t list all of the big name cast, there’s too many. Gerard Butler, Tom Wilkinson, Thandie Newton, Jeremy Piven, and hell, even Ludacris.

The plot doesn’t focus on a certain group over overall situation. That situation is a Russian mob boss trying to build a building in the UK. The top mob boss is the one that can make this happen. But due to unforseen events, things unfold not as they plan.

I definitely recommend this movie if you like the UK crime/action type movie. Top notch!

Dobermann

Dobermann is a fast action movie which I think was based off a comic. I’m not entirely sure. It’s basically about a gang of bank robbers that go all out.

It’s got a great cast, Vincent Cassel, Monica Bellucci, Tchéky Karyo just to name a few. Very fast paced movie, drugs, guns, violence. What more can you ask for? If you want something to sit back and ease into things (and subtitles are ok for you) give it a shot. You probably won’t see something like this made in the US. We don’t see a lot of movies where they shove someone’s head out of a car at high speed and just grind it up.

Though if I made an action movie, I’d certainly have that in there.
