NEW ACTION COMEDY
Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre
From Good Friday 7 April, Prime Video
Some 25 years after they worked together on 1998’s Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, frequent collaborators Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham reunite once again for action comedy Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre, taking a cheeky look at the world of espionage.
The star-studded film, directed and co-written by Ritchie, begins when British intelligence agent Knighton (Eddie Marsan) calls on suave operative Nathan Jasmine (Cary Elwes) to recover a device known only as The Handle, which has been stolen by gangsters.
Although details about the object are shrouded in mystery, it is now worth $10 billion and needs to be retrieved before it ends up being sold and causing untold turmoil. So Nathan reluctantly recruits demanding, unconventional and ruthless spy Orson Fortune, played by Statham, to lead the search.
