fresh:
It's almost too much to follow, but the style, proven by Ritchie time and again, is irresistible.

rotten:
The intricate thing dodges and feints and twists this way and turns that way until, by the time of the alleged resolution, we've lost our bearings completely.

rotten:
The film is lamentably short of narrative coherence.

fresh:
It's a little bleak, a little twisted, a little gory, and a lot funny.
