After returning to his gangster roots with "The Gentlemen," Ritchie decided to take another crack at the spy genre with "Operation Fortune." The trailer for the Jason Statham-starring film first arrived in December 2021 and reception was mostly positive. "Guy Ritchie's films never disappoint, can't wait for this one!" shared YouTube user The globe-trotting spy flick was initially set to debut in early 2022... but it never did. A June 2022 report from As 2023 kicked off, the film began to roll out worldwide. The film quietly debuted stateside in March, going up against "Creed III," and "Scream VI" the following week. Ultimately, the spy thriller only cashed in $6 million domestically, per

Guy Ritchie’s just having a lark. If his last film, “Wrath of Man,” was an enjoyably meaty “Heat” riff, his latest, the overly titled “Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre” is a globe-trotting “Mission: Impossible” facsimile, a convoluted spycraft romp featuring the latest iteration of the Ritchie repertory players. That includes, of course, Jason Statham, who has been Ritchie ride-or-die since For your safety The Times is committed to reviewing theatrical film releases during the “Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre” (or “OF: RDG”) clocks in at nearly two hours, but feels cut to ribbons. It doesn’t even have an opening sequence, wherein the bad guys steal the thingamajig that will trigger the crack team to go after them. Instead, that’s relegated to a nearly nonsensical silent montage that plays out over Elwes’ Nathan Jasmine meeting with Eddie Marsan’s Knighton to assemble a crew of specialists led by quirky oenophile Orson Fortune (Statham) who will be deployed to get the thingamajig back. Hilariously, these two don’t even know what’s been stolen — wait, is this movie a parody? It’s not funny enough to pull off parody, but there’s a reason why “OF: RDG” has been sliced and diced within an inch of its life. Shot in 2021, the film apparently featured a crew of Ukrainian gangsters as the henchmen of Hugh Grant’s billionaire arms dealer antagonist, Greg Simmonds (who is brokering the thingamajig deal). It was abruptly pulled from the release schedule in 2022, one week before Rus...

It’s a sprightly, R-rated crib of both the Mission: Impossible and 007 movies, giving us exactly what we expect and demand of such formula from glamorous, sun-kissed international locations to niftily choreographed action set pieces, nothing we haven’t seen before and won’t see again but done with just enough playful ebullience for it to go down smoothly. It’s less of a vodka martini and more of a beer with a shot of tequila. Statham, an often underutilised comedic actor, is Orson Fortune, a rebellious, wine-loving spy enlisted by Nathan Jasmine (a refreshingly major role for Cary Elwes) to help retrieve some mysterious MacGuffin that’s been stolen by Ukrainian mobsters. He’s paired with two other operatives (Aubrey Plaza and Mancunian rapper Bugzy Malone) and sent after lecherous arms dealer Greg Simmonds (Hugh Grant) to prevent it from falling into even wronger hands. To aid their mission, they recruit Greg’s favourite actor Danny Francesco (Josh Hartnett), hoping he might help them lie their way into his inner circle. It’s all mercifully silly and refreshingly avoidant of a particularly annoying brand of wink, wink smugness that often infects contemporary action movies, many of which Statham himself has starred in. His lovable rogue here is a little run of the mill but he can do this shtick in his sleep and one feels like the guiding hand of Ritchie has woken him up a bit, giving his performance a welcome dose of energy.

Vlastně úplně standardní špionážní biják, který je obohacen o Ritchieho rytmickou dravou režii a hláškující dialogy. Precizně vystavěné situace a momenty, které zúčtují vše, co scénář zasadí. Bavil jsem se celou dobu, přesto se nemohu zbavit dojmu, že tomu něco chybělo. Ať už více využít premisy Grantova prahnutí po hercově slečně nebo nám trochu více prodat postavy. Které jsou fajn, baví a mají charisma, je radost je pozorovat v akci, ale milovat je asi nebudete. K tomu samotné finále, postrádá větší napětí, vyvrcholení předchozí scény tomu nakopává zadek na plné čáře. Prostě příjemná kvalitní fajnovka, co stojí za to vidět, ale asi se k ní nikdo moc vracet nebude. Příjemný filmový start roku 2023. ( 06.01.2023) Orson Fortune a jeho tým musí zabránit prodeji zbraně, která by mohla ohrozit celý svět. K tomu ale musí proniknout do blízkosti nebezpečného protivníka. A hodlají k tomu využít hollywoodskou superstar. Guy Ritchie natočil zábavnou akčně-špionážní komedii, kterou táhnou dopředu především sympatičtí herci. Bohužel jim trošku podkopává nohy zmatený scénář, kvůli němuž příběh často zbytečně přešlapuje na místě a řeší nepodstatnosti, jen aby kvůli tomu musel o pár chvil zbytečně pádit dopředu. Nuda to není, ale od Ritchieho a Stathama člověk očekává trošku víc. ( 12.01.2023) CHCI, ABYSTE ZÍSKAL TO, CO SE ZTRATILO, ZJISTL, KDO JE PRODÁVAJÍCÍ, KDO KUPEC A CO SE VLASTNĚ ZTRATILO...“ Jednoduchej a jasnej úkol. Pro Orsona Fortuneho určitě. Vybere si svůj tým a vyrazí zachr...
