Review

Guy Ritchie attempts to return to his mile-a-minute ¬gangster-flick roots, with mixed results. This time, a bunch of underworld storylines intersect at a mysterious painting, but despite flashes of inspiration, the director’s breathless pacing seems gimmicky and the storytelling often feels like a slog.
