Summary: 'Snatch' this movie up
Review: Okay so the title I suggested was cheesy, but the movie was anything but. From innovative camera angles to a great cast, this movie is great. Guy Ritchie is anything but ordinary and this movie, written and directed by Ritchie, is a relief from the everyday drab movies being released lately.

Summary: I laugh-riot for Anglophiles !
Review: Brad Pitt steals the show, even with a small part like One Punch Mickey. You get the option on the DVD to turn on the Brad Pitt "Pikey" subtitles (Pikey being the Brit equivalent to a type of nomad or gypsy, that you can never understand), which is not only helpful but hysterical. The fact that you can't understand him is funny, but when you read what he's actually saying, it's even funnier. Dennis Farina is great as cousin Avi, and has some really fast, witty lines and he does them with perfect dead pan. Example, after the huge Fiasco that Farina flies to England to deal with... US Customs agent: Do you have anything to declare? Farina: Yeah, don't go to London. All of the actors are dead on with their respective characters, and all fit so well together...Guy Ritchie chose an excellent cast, and has made a terrific, and very modern film that still has me laughing.

Summary: Just one COOL movie
Review: One cool movie. No doubt about it, if you enjoy an action movie with a good strong plot and a good amount of comedy (who doesn't) then this is the perfect movie for it. Brad Pitt does an incredible job, as usual, and this movie is packed with incredible actors doing great work. This movie is hilarious, and just flat out kicks.......definitly one to own.

Summary: Ritchie-Rich Film
Review: Some say that Snatch is a poor follow up of Ritchie's first film, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. I say that this is an improvement on his signature style, an aggressive and a supercharged 21-gun salute to Britain film/filmmakers. The deftness displayed in this writer/director's pacing and editing is at times electrifying and sometimes simply beautiful. The soundtrack is not only superb and includes one of my personal favorite bands, Oasis, and is used to great comic effect as an poignant accompaniment to certain scenes. A more violent film you aren't likely to see this year. In the vein of Pulp Fiction, Trainspotting, and Fight Club, Snatch is a gritty dance with the criminal element, revolving around a stolen 86-karat diamond that any good crook would give his right arm for. (And in one case, I mean that literally.) After a boggling series of double-crosses, triple-crosses, and multi-crosses, Snatch becomes a game of who will end up with the gem -- and how will they get it? Ritchie keeps us guessing at every turn, with Russians hiring mercenary crooks to steal the jewel, hit men sent to kill the mercenaries, mobsters trying to outwit the hit men, Jewish jewelers scheming to undermine the mobsters, a crazed bare-knuckled boxer looking for his payday despite the chaos, and one dog who's lost his bark. And every one of these stories is hilarious. Vinnie Jones (Gone in 60 Seconds) as Bullet Tooth Tony, a hunter/assassin who chills his prey with deadly stares; Benicio Del Toro (Traffic) is caught-in-the-middle robber/gambling addict; Dennis Farina, a stressed jeweler who can never catch a break; or any of two dozen other apt actors who fully own their roles. In the end, though, you have to give a hand to Brad Pitt, still buff from Fight Club, as a slur-mouthed Gypsy boxer who always manages to get one step ahead of the crowd. Guy runs through the entire pantheon of MTV camera tricks: slow motion, fast motion, stop motion, reverse motion, low angles, high angles, upside down camerawork, and more. There are some funny lines, and some of the violence is quite inventive. Several times in this movie I was reminded of the "strange occurrences" theme seen in Magnolia. All in all this film I wholeheartedly recommend.

Summary: FUNNY HARD GUYS WITH THICK ACCENTS GET VIOLENT
Review: Guy Ritchie's follow-up to the hugely entertaining gangster caper "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" does not break new ground. This impressively packaged two disc release includes a great-looking widescreen transfer of the complex and violent gem heist that's peopled with a bunch of heavy-accented oddballs including Benicio Del Toro, Dennis Farina and Vinnie Jones. Brad Pitt is a bare-knuckle Gypsy boxing champ who apparently speaks a hybrid Welsh-English, but in a funny and completely indecipherable dialect. In fact, the entire film needs the optional English subtitles, but I think that's intentional. The point of the movie is that it's all about the comic-book images and the sounds -- not words. Disc 1 includes full frame and widescreen versions with a funny director and producer commentary. Disc 2 includes a making-of featurette, deleted scenes, storyboards, photos, trailers and web links. It all adds up to way too much info for a less than significant film.

Summary: Very unique
Review: This is a very uniquely made movie. While is does contain some violence and many may be put off by the language (very rough), but if you can enjoy or see past the rough language and just appreciate the film, you will emjoy it. This is one on the best low budget films I have enjoyed in a ong time. It is also especially enjoyed by someone who has spent some time in the UK.

Summary: Snatch this one up (forgive the annoying pun)
Review: To start, Snatch is a movie that you have to watch multiple times. If you are unfamiliar with british accents and their slang, you will DEFINATELY need to watch it multiple times. Guy Ritchie has the habit of making things jump around unexpectantly, and you could possibly miss something. If you watched Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, you know what you're getting yourself into, mind you though, that while may of the same actors are in both movies, they don't play they same characters. This is a funny, chaotic film that will keep you locked onto the screen. I was very impressed with Pitt, I've never been a big fan, but this popped him higher on my list.

Summary: "Lock, Stock...." was better
Review: I enjoyed this movie. But it didn't have the charm of Ritchie's first film, "Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels". This movie's got some strong points. It's funny, well shot and fantastically edited. One of the film's running gags is the difficulty in understanding certain characters. Which brings me to my strongest complaint about the film. If you don't have an ear for accents, good luck understanding ANYONE in this movie. It gets frustrating at points. I had to see the movie twice just to get straight what everybody said to each other. There are a lot of similarities between this film and "Lock, Stock...". But the first one had more of an appeal, because it was about long-time friends getting themselves in a mess of trouble. It makes it easier to identify with the characters. We've all got friends who get us in tight spots, and that's why "Lock, Stock...." is more fun to watch and more engaging. I would say that if you're a big fan of "Lock, Stock...." and Ritchie's style, get this. I did and I don't feel cheated. But this film does have some marks against it. This isn't a buy everyone should make.

Summary: Snatch is a terrific movie broken down into bite size chucks
Review: Almost certainly you'll find the plot a little hard to follow, but that's not what's important here. Snatch is a terrific movie broken down into bite size chucks. Think of Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail (except remove the slapstick and insert London gangsters) and you'll have the right idea. Even though everything hangs together, each scene is enjoyable by itself. You could start this movie at almost any point and just start laughing your head off. What amused me most about "Snatch" was Guy Ritchie's use of incredibly brief flashbacks and cut scenes as a means of characterization. Franky "Four Fingers", a gangster who also happens to be a compulsive gambler, is a perfect example. Every time somebody mentions gambling around Franky, we a treated to a quick scene of Franky's eyes glazing over, followed by pictures of him ridiculously drunk in a Las Vegas casino all set to the tune of "Viva Las Vegas". Very funny! As always Brad Pitt is hilarious. You should defiantly check this movie out.
