Black Out: Dutch Guy Ritchie?


January 23, 2014 | Marina Galperina

Here’s a trailer for Arne Toonen’s Black Out. 

On the morning before his wedding, retired criminal Jos (Raymond Thiry) wakes up next to a murdered man with no memory of the previous night or how he and the body got there. Jos soon discovers that a group of gangsters have pinned him as the lone suspect in the theft of 20 kilos of cocaine…and he’s got 24 hours to get it back, or the life of his bride will be in serious danger. Now Jos has no choice but to creep back into his dangerous former world of nasty thieves and violent drug dealers–all before his wedding the next day!

And you thought your blackouts were problematic.

It’s like Guy Ritchie, but harder and weirder, allegedly. Which is good. And who cares that it’s in Dutch. It’s got captions. I can never understand what they’re saying in Ritchie’s films either. Twitch reports that Black Out is coming to US theaters and VOD on February 21st.
