Review of Star

Star (I) (2001)
5/10
Guy Ritchie's latest speeds out of the gate...and falls flat on its face
7 July 2001
I'm a huge Ritchie fan. If you haven't already you MUST go out and buy the DVDs to his two prior films Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

In his latest, an internet only project, a snobbish pop star who wants to escape her bodyguards is sent on a rubber-burning chase through the streets of London. One of the best parts of a Guy Ritchie film is the unique story, and his unique ways of telling it. Sstar, however, doesn't have much of a story (just a cool car chase with the BMW logo promintely displayed in each shot) so Ritchie's potential isn't put to great use. If y ou have a fast connection, go ahead and check it out, but if you have a low bandwidth, you're not missing much.

P.S. Snatch just came out in a special edition DVD, check it out!
