Ritchie's London Is Old Hatby Zoe Strimpel
It's a very sorry season for movies. Guy Ritchie's new one, "RocknRolla," has been laughed out of London. Bigwigs from the Observer's critic Jason Solomons to the author of "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People," Toby Young, were among a crowd who were roundly unimpressed. "The film is basically another mad trawl through London's seedy underworld with mavericks and crack addicts around every corner," James Christopher writes in the Times of London today. This city may be the hot new place for movies, but it looks like Mr. Ritchie's brand of gangster-flick has grown far too old and nobody wants to know. Meanwhile Will Ferrell's oh-so-American new one, "Step Brothers," came out here last week to utter dismay, too. Bring on the fall.
