Redirected

Redirected has all the hallmarks of a Guy Ritchie film except it's not. This movie is directed by a Lithuanian who goes by the name of Emilis Velyvis and is the first time he has directed an English/Lithuanian cast, successfully I must add . Not only has he made a cracking film, he has thrown in a bit of gangster action, comedy and a bunch of Lithuanians fighting cockney geezers. This is probably the best film that Vinnie Jones has starred in (one that he actually has a speaking part) since Mean Machine (aye I liked it n whit?). Also starring Scot Williams, Gil Darnell and Oliver Jackson. If you are a fan of Lock Stock, Snatch and RocknRolla (we all know that Revolver was an abortion) then you'll be a fan of this movie.

Although it is written the way it is, I found this film to be incredibly annoying. The situations are farcical and far fetched....but not in a good way. Never before have I watched a film that gets me screaming at the screen " Just shoot them !! " so often and with such passion. 9's out of 10 for THIS film ? Perleaaase ! Get real.....a FOUR at the very most !! I had NO sympathy with the 3 robbers and the guy who is unwittingly coerced into being part of their activities. They ALL needed shooting and I came away from this feeling sorry for Vinnie Jones that he had to put himself through this pile of do-do. If you intend watching this, be fully prepared to shout at the screen like I did. Enjoy, if you like to be wound up !

This is a violent movie, true, with plenty of four-letter expletives, but the violence is a little bit cartoon-like really. If you can forgive that, then the movie is worth watching for the humour, because it is very funny in places. Vinny Jones is his normal menacing self. Jolly good fun.

Just trying too hard to be a Guy Ritchie film.

I like Vinnie Jones but I think he needs to play a different kind of gangster, a little more smiles, a little more smug.

Had some good parts, acted well, but the story line is corny, I mean how do you get someone into Lithuania without a passport?

Surprised I lasted until the end, and it ended pretty poorly.

So many of these shows have potential but where do they get the script writers from? Surely they can see the holes? Cant they?

Can they just ring me and go thru it before they submit it?

SO many good parts to this show, but just not tied and ended correctly.

The trailer makes really wrong impression about the movie Redirected! This is one of those movies to watch with your friends at Friday's night and just have fun. Nothing more just fun. It's really funny and entertaining but I think only Lithuanians (well, and some people from other Eastern European countries) can understand this kind of humor. I expected something more serious and I have to admit that some scenes are really stupid and unnecessary. In my opinion you wouldn't get involved in a lot of those situations staying in Lithuania. I prefer another Emilis Velyvis movie - Zero because it's more tense, realistic and not that goofy. I still give this movie an 8 because I laughed my ass off watching the COLOLO scene, It was the best, seriously. And I liked the camera work, the acting, Vinnie Jones with some great Lithuanian actors like Sapranauskas in it. Redirected is worth seeing , just don't expect anything too much. Just relax and enjoy it's craziness. Have fun!
