I've always been a fan of his work, but over the last few years his filmmaking has truly evolved. This one in particular felt like a war movie from the past, as if it were filmed in the 50's or 60's, loaded with nostalgia and genuine memorable acting, but also with Guy Ritchie's love for building tension and mayhem.
Critics really need to decide at this point whether or not they like his style because he's one of the most entertaining directors of the last 25+ years and yet many critics who aren't fond of his works continue to watch and review them poorly.
If you're a fan of his works, this is a must see. If you love historical cinema and a taut spy game, this is a must see. In fact, there's really no reason why this wouldn't be a must see unless you happen to fall into the category of this director's naysayers.
