I'm a huge fan of Guy Ritchie's earlier work of Lock Stock, Snatch & Rocknrolla.
Not so much of his later Hollywood work, although The Gentlemen was pretty good with the exception of Charlie Hunnan.
Operation Fortune unfortunately follows the path of Ritchie's The Man From Uncle as being, uninspiring. There's nothing wrong with it, Jason Stratham does what he does well & Hugh Grant seems to be playing the same character that he did The Gentlemen.
The rest of the cast are pretty forgetable, it's not really the actors though but the script.
There's just something missing, Ritchie seems to have lost his edge when it comes to making films. Rather than being catchy & innovative they're just nothing new & as such dull.
Operation Fortune is basically Mission Impossible but without the sparkle of Cruise & spectacular stunts. Not that I'm really a fan of either.
The ending was obviously was setup for a sequel.
I just hope Ritchie gives it a miss & spends a bit of time finding what he used to have, inspiration to produce something new & edgy again.
