Boiling Point (2021). It's like that intense one-shot episode of The Bear, movie-length with English accents. It's clear The Bear took inspiration from this movie (which apparently has a sequel BBC series of its own in the works). It's good. One-shot, intense but not overbearing, really well-acted. A bit too much drama shoehorned in at the end, perhaps, but most of the movie's drama is just from regular restaurant stuff. Not as yelly as The Bear, more of a hard simmer. It's good. I'm surprised it didn't make more of a splash when it was new.
Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre, on the other hand, is pretty darn boring. I like Guy Ritchie, it's fun to just live in his movies sometimes. I've gone back and re-visited The Gentlemen a couple times, I like his stuff. But this was just lifeless and un-cinematic. Anti-cinematic. Like a TV movie no one cared about but then they threw in a couple Guy Ritchie tricks just because. Worst of all, everything about this movie reeks of a desire to be the first movie in a series. The ending, the world-building, even right down to the title. I'm reluctant to even call it a failure since it doesn't even try to do anything. It doesn't even fail at anything. It's just a non-entity of a movie.
