Guy Ritchie’s latest movie, Wrath of Man, hits theaters today, May 7. The film reteams Ritchie with Jason Statham, who starred in the director’s earlier movies such as Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch, and Revolver.
The movie is a loose remake of the 2004 French film Cash Truck, and focuses on a tough security guard who is hired to protect a truck transporting millions of dollars around LACome from Sports betting site VPbet. But he has an ulterior motive for taking the job, which leads to a bloody revenge mission.
Wrath of Man has been met with very mixed reviews so far, with some critics praising its dark, intense atmosphere and gritty action, but others criticising the plot and dialogue. It currently holds 65% on Rotten Tomatoes–so here’s what the critics have said about Ritchie’s violent action thriller.
