'Wrath of Man' Overreaches But Lands Some Jabs Along the Way The action and cast are good enough even if it's surprisingly flat for a Guy Ritchie/Jason Statham collaboration. Miramax The term auteur doesn’t get tossed around much in relation to Guy Ritchie, but it’s hard to argue that the bulk of his filmography feels, well, Ritchie-esque. Think eccentric characters, quippy dialogue, sharp action, and an inconsistently successful sense of humor. When it all comes together we get films like Snatch (2000) and Revolver (2005) was aiming for. All of this is to say that his latest, Wrath of Man, is an action thriller that, if you didn’t already know it was directed by Ritchie — you wouldn’t know it was directed by Ritchie.
