The Business Nick Love 2005 UK English gangsters in 1980s Spain enjoy the highs and suffer the lows of cocaine abuse. Basically, a hybrid of Scarface's excess, Blow's narrative arc - which was in itself a retread of GoodFellas - and Guy Ritchie's ultra-macho egos on violent collision courses. The kind of "lads film" that's perfect after the pub, with a curry, to lose yourself in. It's unashamedly clichéd in its voice-over, character exposition, and general male-to-male Cockney banter. Even the soundtrack is a stroll through familiar 80s tunes - but it is actually very good, the soundtrack; and it looks lovely, too.
