Plastic - 2014 - 4/10
Expected disappointment with this one, and duly received.
Caper heist with cardboard characters, plot holes an eight year old could spot, useless scenery, MOR tunes.
UK con men quartet get in trouble with small time Eastern European boss and his two thugs.
Yep, four good guys vs three villains. Guys, acquire handguns, target practice, or press in foreheads.
Easy, Barney.
These supposed “good” hoods - who steal credit cards and rip off rubes - are naive 20 year olds.
Still, in less than two weeks they work out how to heist $2 M, vacation in Miami, hire a private jet!!
So smart, so special.
Despite arguments, colossal errors, wayward romance, “the plan” unfolds.
Predictable - boring - with contempt for viewer IQ.
I keep hoping. First time I heard of the Gilbey brothers was
Rise Of The Footsoldier, a cracking good mobster flick.
Firm member becomes enforcer then accumulates power. Damn good film.
Next,
A Lonely Place To Die with stupid, baked-potatoes-for-brains, hikers stumbling across kidnapping plot.
Every character had zero common sense and negative likability.
Plastic is yet another step down into comatose creativity.
Guy Ritchie without style.
