In underworld terms, Chas Devlin is a 'performer,' a gangster with a talent for violence and intimidation. Turner is a reclusive rock superstar. When Chas and Turner meet, their worlds collide—and the impact is both exotic and explosive.

Performance feels as if Guy Ritchie ingested a metric shit tonne of psychedelic mushrooms then decided to make a gangster movie (although that’s probably what his whole Kabbalah / Madonna tantric sex era was like anyways), but with all of the wit replaced with pretentious waffle.
Chas (Jamie Fox. Not that one.) is a standover man in the seedy Brit underworld, when he gets a little overzealous in carrying out his duties, he falls afoul of his boss and seeks shelter in the basement apartment of bohemian artiste Turner (Mick Jagger) and his secretary/lover/absolute Goddess Finneas and Pherber (Anita Pallenberg).
The juxtaposition of differing aspects of London society, such as the seedy underworld, upper crust toffs and bohemian degeneracy are nicely underpinned by imagery of the common man, of families, and of workers just living their life, evocative of the hidden worlds untouched by most of us.
It’s has an undeniable visual flair, a depiction of gangster life that feels real in its grime and intimidation, yet heightened through use of experimental camera work and editing. And yet It’s hard to really find the appeal in either lead. Fox’s Chas is a sadistic piece of work and Jagger as Turner has next level rock star magnetism, but is offset by the pure wankery of his dialogue.
