* CareerResurrection: It's generally agreed that the ''Film/{{Sherlock Holmes|2009}}'' [[Film/SherlockHolmesAGameOfShadows movies]] brought him back to prominence as a director.

* ''Aladdin'' [[note]]live action remake of Disney's Disney/{{Aladdin}}[[/note]] (TBA)

Guy Stuart Ritchie (born 10 September 1968) is a British film director and screenwriter, also known for his former marriage to {{Music/Madonna}}.

Ritchie then made ''Film/RocknRolla'' in an obvious attempt to recapture the violent and irreverent underworld hijinks of his first two films. It was received better than ''Revolver'', but wasn't really a success. He seemed to be approaching the nadir, but his adaptation of ''Film/{{Sherlock Holmes|2009}}'' appears to have [[CareerResurrection revived his fortunes]]; it received mostly positive reviews, and was successful at the box office, grossing more than all of his previous films combined. The sequel, ''Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows'' was equally successful.

He also produced the TV series ''Series/{{SWAG}}''.

* SlowMotion: Used abundantly in both ''Film/{{Sherlock Holmes|2009}}'' films and in ''Film/KingArthurLegendOfTheSword''.

* SnarkToSnarkCombat: It wouldn't be a Guy Ritchie movie without characters sassing the crap out of each other. Extra points if heavy English accents are involved.
