Life is like a cigarette case

All you need to know about life is retained in those four walls. You will notice that one of your personalities is seduced by the illusions of grandeur - the gold packet of king size with a regal insignia, an attractive implication towards grandeur and wealth, the subtle suggestion that cigarettes are indeed your royal and loyal friends, and that, Pete, is a lie. Your other personality is trying to draw your attention to the flip side of the discussion, written in boring bold black and white, it's a statement that these neat little soldiers of death and in fact trying to kill you and that, Pete, is the truth. Oh, beauty is a beguiling call to death and I'm addicted to the sweet pitch of its siren. That that starts sweet ends bitter , and that which starts bitter ends sweet.

This is my favorite part of the movie. There are too many glamorous temptations in life, and people are willing to be deceived without turning back.

Lanny is probably the richest man in London. He wears a class suit, his office style is high-class, but he does things that even the lackeys around him despise. He is a trap, framed the gangsters, swallowed real estate and money, and made hundreds of millions of pounds in vain. . His life is full of lies. On the contrary, his son, Johnny Quid, a drug addict, lives in a dreadful life. While taking drugs, he speaks big truths, swears and beats people, but he is regarded as a class. He is Lanny's stepson, and his memory of Lanny is probably in the sound of his favorite music, Lanny whipping himself with the belt. Lanny looked down on Johnny and thought he was a piece of mud that couldn't support the wall.

Mumble, One Two, and Handsome Bob are three good friends, small gangsters, who are put together by Lanny, who owe Lanny a lot of money. These three people are also bad people in the eyes of the people. They don't have decent jobs, they only do things like stealing chickens, and they have been in prison. But friendship between friends is real. While One Two was in jail, Handsome Bob visited One Two's mother every day to take care of her for four years. One Two fulfilled Bob's five-year wish on the night Handsome Bob was going to jail the next day, and danced a slow dance with him, even if he was straight and Bob was gay, even though he knew that Bob's wish might be do him , he also decides to grant Bob's wish.

Archi is Lanny's lackey. He worked hard for Lanny for many years, including four years in prison. He did many things for Lanny, including hanging people up and putting them in the crayfish pool, forcing them to tell the truth. . Although Archi disagreed with many of Lanny's actions, no one would doubt Lanny's loyalty. The narration that runs through the film is also Archi's voice. Archi was by Lanny's side at all times, helping him find paintings, helping him deal with Uri, helping him find Johnny. He is not a good man and a woman, and he does all the bad things but is upright.

Stella is a bright-looking female accountant, but in reality she married a gay lawyer as a wife for profit. She laments that life is boring all day long. Her way of finding fun is very simple, robbing the Russian boss Uri for money.

The most famous film of director Guy Ritchie is Two Smoking Guns and Snatch. Many people have too much hope for this Rocknrolla, hoping that it can be as good as those two films, but they were disappointed, so they gave this film no high rating. I actually think this film has more depth than two bongs at least. It's a coincidence that the two big smoking guns are surrounded, and Rocknrolla is naked to show us the terrible beauty of this world.

In the end, at the climax, it turned out that the most hated and most despised inner ghost was the well-dressed Lanny. He turned into Sydney Shaw and testified to the people who worked for him one after another, although he had the wealth and high status that countless people envied. , but he's doing dirty deals that even the junkie gangsters disdain.

Then, everything went back to the first paragraph. Life is like a pack of cigarettes. There is always a bright and bright identity on the outside. People fall into the pursuit of lies one after another. Attraction, like a banshee sings a beautiful song, makes you intoxicated, voluntarily throw yourself into her arms, and never rise above. The other side of life is the fact under the cigarette box, written in bold black and white, smoking kills, a fact that you know but don't want to believe. That that starts sweet ends bitter, and that which starts bitter ends sweet. And we often don't know how it started or how it ended.

    Although in various aspects, this Guy Ritchie is not worth mentioning compared with the Guy Ritchie of the year, but the handsome guy, the official match, looks very cool! !

    Archie: Now if you can master a slap like that, there's no need for your clients to hold back. They will open up like a fountain, full of words. No need for strong violence, no no. They're transported back to their childhoods. Putty in your hands. Ask Bandy. Look, thinks he's back at school.

    Danny: But he never went to school, Arch.

    Archie: You want a slap as well, Daniel, eh? Now, if a slap don't work, you cut 'em or you pay 'em. But you keep your receipts, 'cause this ain't the Mafia. Now get out there 'n look for the painting!
