LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Guy Ritchie has been one of the most stylish filmmakers of all time and he brilliantly uses his surroundings to elevate his storytelling. Whether it was 'Sherlock Holmes' or 'The Gentlemen', viewers could always see Ritchie's distinctive and unique style in all his movies. It's been more than 2 years since Ritchie hasn't come forward with a film and fans have been eagerly waiting for the director to come forward with a new project. So, it doesn't come as a shock that Ritchie is ready to enthrall us with a slick action-comedy 'Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre' starring Jason Statham in the lead role.

The movie primarily focuses on a super spy named Orson Future (Statham) who must stop the sale of a deadly new weapons technology that is being made by the billionaire arms broker Greg Simmonds (Hugh Grant). Future has always worked alone, but this time, he has to reluctantly work with a team of operatives that are as good as him. They make a unique plan to hire one of the biggest Hollywood stars for their undercover mission and stop Simmonds from creating such dangerous tech.
