Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre (2023) is a stylish spy action-comedy directed by Guy Ritchie, featuring Jason Statham as Orson Fortune, a suave and phobia-prone super-spy. Tasked with retrieving a stolen high-tech device known as “The Handle,” Fortune assembles a team comprising tech expert Sarah Fidel (Aubrey Plaza), weapons specialist JJ Davies (Bugzy Malone), and Hollywood actor Danny Francesco (Josh Hartnett). Their mission leads them across the globe, infiltrating the world of billionaire arms dealer Greg Simmonds (Hugh Grant) to prevent a catastrophic sale of the device .
Critics praised the ensemble cast and stylish direction but noted that the plot lacked depth and originality. The film was described as a “by-the-numbers spy caper” that, despite its high production values, didn’t offer much new to the genre .

The film underperformed at the box office, possibly due to its release alongside major titles like Creed III and Demon Slayer: To the Swordsmith Village .
