It's not that I don't like action movies in theory, it's just that so many of them are dire in practice. Gamekeeper employs so many cliches and stolen ideas that it comes off as a ripoff of most of the worst examples of the genre. It isn't even recognisable as the work of Guy Ritchie, lacking the humour and puzzle-box plots of Lock Stock or Snatch. It's just a straightforward man-who's-lost-everything-goes-looking-for-revenge story.

This is Guy Ritchie's break into the graphic novel format and it reads like an action film. He wants to make a film of the comic and my highest praise would be that I would want to go see it. It's not an original story but there's so few original stories these days.
3.5 stars. The first volume has some fantastic artwork and layout. Makes the entire story flow effortlessly whilst creating more for the story.
