Few fun facts: 1. The "state of the art smokless barbie that keeps your feet warm" is Guy Ritchies design and he sells them 2. The Bar "Lore of the Land" is Ritchies own Pub, he also grows the ingridients for his own beer. 3. Ritchie and Grant are good friends, and his role in this film is a bit of a joke because Grant had huge problems with the tabloids in England and openly despises them.

Adding actors that can ramp up the role of any character he wrights up to 200%, coupled with great film and cinema-photography thechnique and a banging soundtrack that is well matched with the films pace. This is what true film making is. This will be forever and always one of my top 5 films of all time. Very well written, shot and executed.

Great reaction like alwaus Chrissie, love this movie, Guy Ritchie really is at home with this type of film. He's like a British Tarantino with his dialogue. He has a way of making every side character memorable. Among the star-studded cast of this film, Hugh Grant really stands out with his eccentric character and fun performance. Grant filmed his scenes in just five days with 40 pages of dialogue to cover. Grant had made a cheat sheet to help him learn all the lines, but the night before filming, his car was broken into and the cheat sheet was stolen. One of the more entertaining aspects of the film is the framing of Fletcher's movie pitch to Ray. Fletcher lays out the plot of the movie as if it is a movie he is writing himself. And a fun-fact at the end of the film, Fletcher is seen meeting with a movie executive and pitching the same movie. He presents the script which is title "Bush." That happens to be one of the working titles for this film. Also, behind Fletcher is a poster for The Man from U.N.C.L.E. which Ritchie also directed. Keep up with the good work.
@chrissiereacts10 ай бұрын
5 days is wild! But I guess there aren't too many location changes for his character... but still, what a talent to be able to give such a heavy dialogue performance in such a short amount of time. And nail it! Did the cheat sheets ever resurface? A jackpot for the thieves lol I actually was super confused for the first half trying to figure out if this was a fictional story he was telling or real events 😂 If I ever release an uncut version you can witness the utter confusion haha

Best reaction by far to this excellent movie! As others have suggested "RocknRolla" is well worth a watch but "In Bruges" is an absolute must see. It was Martin McDonagh's first mainstream film and when I watched it back in '08 I thought 'he should quit right now because he'll never make a better film'. His brother John Michael's first film "The Guard" (2011) is also a low budget little gem. Both brothers lost their way with their 2nd movies IMO but Martin redeemed himself with "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) . Little or no reactions to any of the above and in my opinion they all deserve more coverage.
