Short New TV Spot for Guy Ritchie's RocknRolla

In light of the recent studio troubles that RocknRolla is having, we've got a great new TV spot to share with you. Watching this makes me forget about all of those troubles and focus on the good aspects. Luckily I get to see RocknRolla next week before I had off to the Toronto Film Festival and I couldn't be more excited. What is a RocknRolla? Well Guy Ritchie told our own Bob $tencil that a RocknRolla could be "the kind of guy that has sex while flying a plane." But if you're looking for the real answer to that question, this TV spot answers it in a thick English accent. Thanks to Empire for launching this. "RocknRolla starts with a Russian mobster establishing a real estate scam to make millions of pounds, which brings the various ne'er-do-wells of the London crime scene out looking for their slice of the cash." Sound good? Take a look...

Watch the short TV spot for RocknRolla:

RocknRolla is both written and directed by British filmmaker Guy Ritchie, of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch, and Revolver previously. Unlike his previously films, this one has been under a studio, Warner Brothers, from the very start. RocknRolla hit theaters everywhere on October 31st.

I love all of guy's films, except revolver which was a giant piece of shit.

Guy Ritchie can make a lot of good film Lock, Stock was incredible, Snatch was awesome, and Revlover was beyond words, so I'll be seeing RocknRolla opening night.

The only people who didnt like Revolver didnt get the film and what it was supposed to mean and than if they did "get it" and still didnt like that movie should find a new hobbie. It was genius and one of my favorite movies of last year (usa at least). this looks good and im pumped.

Sorry, but the was a pretty bad teaser. I liked the intro but it seemed as if it just cut off.

more like ForgetYouSawYa than RockNRolla

Guy Ritchie may not have much breath when it comes to his subject matter, but he's definitely the man to turn to for a good British gangster film. Oh, and why all the hate for Revolver? It wasn't terrible, it was just different, and yeah, its definitely doesn't show off what Guy is known for, but a director has to experiment you know?

I agree with Ryan it seemed like the ending was rushed and then just cut off, the beginning was kick ass though and i really want to see it.
