Full Plot Details

Will Plunkett (Robert Carlyle) and Captain James Macleane (Jonny Lee Miller), two men from different ends of the social spectrum in eighteenth century England, enter a gentlemen's agreement: They decide to rid the aristocrats of their belongings. With Plunkett's criminal know-how and Macleane's social connections, they team up to be soon known as "The Gentlemen Highwaymen". But when one day these gentlemen hold up Lord Chief Justice Gibson's (Sir Michael Gambon's) coach, Macleane instantly falls in love with his beautiful and cunning niece, Lady Rebecca Gibson (Liv Tyler). Unfortunately, Thief Taker General Chance (Ken Stott), who also is quite fond of Rebecca, is getting closer and closer to getting both: The Gentlemen Highwaymen and Rebecca, who, needless to say, don't want to get any closer to him. But Plunkett still has a thing to sort out with Chance, and his impulsiveness gets all of them in a little trouble.

Movie Reviews

Low IQ Canadian - 9/10 by Martin ScribbsThe best argument ever made for the carpet bombing of Hollywood.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Jay CarrScott makes it easy to overlook the conventionality beneath his sometimes overdone but almost always enjoyable combination of atmosphere and propulsiveness.
Mr. Showbiz - 8/10 by Kevin MaynardA cross between a Hogarth painting and an MTV video, Plunkett & Macleane cuts quite a swath.
Newsweek - 8/10 by Louise RosenA highly entertaining movie in a genre that is often as stiff as the Lady Gibson's boning.
TheMovieReport.com - 8/10 by Michael DequinaA rollicking time at the movies, if not exactly enlightening.
L.A. Weekly - 8/10 by Ella TaylorLewd, crude and occasionally too brutal to take, it's also gorgeous, heartfelt.
TV Guide Magazine - 6/10 by Maitland McDonaghIt's vulgar, to be sure, but it's also brash and invigorating.
Dallas Observer - 6/10 by Andy KleinIts greatest flaw is the casting of Miller ("Trainspotting," "Hackers"), who continues to have virtually no screen presence...For all that, Plunkett & Macleane is fun.
USA Today - 5/10 by Mike ClarkThe plunk-ing of a rap/disco soundtrack onto a movie about debtors' prisons and 18th century British highwaymen?
New York Daily News - 5/10 by Jack MathewsIts noisily inappropriate pop-rock score overwhelms its meager subplots about British class conflict.
