Summary: Lock, Stock and Brad Pitt with his Shirt Off
Review: The casting was great, and there's an edginess to Mr. Madonna's movies that can be very enjoyable. But aside from Brad Pitt's delightful performance, this movie is a virtual remake of "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels." Individual stories merge at the end for a big denouement, with the bad guys getting their comeuppance, and the good guys not only making out OK, but learning a lesson of some kind. Rent it, don't buy it.

Summary: One of those simply brilliant movies
Review: Guy Richie, Snatch's director, for those who don't know it is Madonna's husband. This was basically all I knew when I saw the movie the first time. This, and a very good recommendation from a peer at work. What I found was a movie that is simply brilliant. It is filled with some of the funniest scenes you have seen in a long time (top-notch humor, the type of Saturday Night Live, but British-style), and therefore deals in that way with a whole ganster-like plot with originally many separate threads, which are progressively combined in a very smart way, much like the maestro Tarantino would do. If you enjoyed "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" (Richie's first movie) you'll love this one. If you haven't seen it, after you see Snatch, you'll die to see it and will love it every bit as much. Richie uses again a large part of the same cast from the first movie (including the main star, Jason Statham). The only thing I regretted was that Del Toro did not play a more important role in the movie. But then again, Pitt's rendition of the impossible-to-understand-yet-incredibly-funny gipsy was a sample of sheer genius!

Summary: Im confused, and I like it.
Review: After one viewing of Snatch I admit that I had no idea what these guys were saying half the time. Almost all of the actors had extremely thick english, irish or russian accents and talked very fast. I honestly needed subtitles to understand it all. I did like Snatch though. I love Guy Ritchie's style of film making. Very slick. I will watch it again.....with subtitles on!

Summary: snatch it up baby
Review: devilishly funny movie. it takes a while to get use to the talking since the heavy british accent do make it a bit hard to understand at times. especially brad pitts character, i still have trouble remembering the movie because i just didnt have a clue about what was said in some of it. the story is the same setup as lock stock and 2 smoking barrels but has a very quintin tarrentino kind of feel to it. the ending was a little hard to swallow but still very clever. go rent it or buy it its a good movie. the special features are kind of lacking though in my oppinion so if you want to buy it i suggest the vhs.

Summary: Excellent flick.... but is the DVD defective?
Review: Snatch is really an excellent, exciting, VERY funny movie. Alot like Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, only better though. However, is anybody else having problems with the DVD? None of the deleted scenes will play on mine. If they are defective, I wonder how we can reach Columbia/Tristar to let them know? I went to their website, but there is no contact/email there. :(

Summary: Terrific sophomore venture
Review: LOCK STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS showed the new talent in the noir/comedy genre that is Guy Ritchie. SNATCH proves that he is terrific at what he does. SNATCH is a giddy, rollicking gangster comedy that is one of the funniest things I have ever seen hit the screen. LOCK STOCK was very good, but Ritchie proves that he has an original visual style that works well with his films' typical fast paced styling and editing. Ritchie's camera moves all over the place in odd spins and twists, jumpcuts, sudden speed changes, and pauses. It's brilliant camerawork that adds to the impact of the more serious moments of the movie. Even though it is the supporting cast that truly keeps this film chugging, every single actor is great in their part. Benecio is quite funny in his small roll, as is Brad Pitt, who steals every single scene he is in. But the fast paced, rapid-spit style dialog that is given by each actor is so funny that there seems to be no way anyone can screw it up. This is a guy film all the way, even considering that the only female actress who isn't nude is Pitt's "mother," who registers well in her roll. The actors have terrific chemistry with everyone, and that makes every performance even more believable. The story really can't be explained, since it's all over the spectrum, but it involves underground boxing, a HUGE diamond, a funny yet mean dog, and lots and lots of unsavory characters. Ritchie's script is full of terrific one-liners and spouts of hilarious dialog, along with some very interesting takes on things such as the birth of Jesus and the meaning of the word "Nemesis." One thing in great films always sticks out, making the film evern better, and in SNATCH, it's the music. It's a great blend of pop, techno, rock, and off-beat classical. Every character seems to have some sort of theme song that is perfectly matched with their personality. Overall, SNATCH is great fun. It's funny, smart, fast paced, and never bogged down in its own pomposity, as many ventures into this genre are. Ritchie, to me, is like Christopher McQuarrie (THE USUAL SUSPECTS, THE WAY OF THE GUN). He knows he is good in his genre, but it will be extremely interesting to see both of these great writer/directors as they move into unkown territory of film.

Summary: Sha From Bethnal Green Heart of East London (Snatch) rules
Review: this film is like so proper spankingly crazy and thats what I like to see the british boys making for the cinema's around the world, ritchie might be influenced by americans but ladys and mates he hasn't lost his cockney attitude of making a twisted film i'd keep on going to watch his future releases on his new movie debut's. snatch is like proper crisp blnded characters with 2nd class culture in it and that makes this movies so great. keep up the good work ritchie Bethnal Green Side is rocking. ...

Summary: Hugely entertaining!
Review: I really don't care that Guy Ritchie is married to Madonna. It hasn't affected his moviemaking talent. I loved Lock, Stock; I loved Snatch. It's hilarious, scary, splendidly edited and, best of all, features Brad Pitt in, arguably, the best performance of his career. Every time I start to wonder about why (aside from his looks) he has a career at all, I'm reminded that, to me, he was the only redeeming feature in Thelma and Louise. In Snatch he is perfection: the incomprehensible dead-on Irish blather, the banty-rooster fighting fists, the mother-loving sentiment; the entire package is just fabulous. Don't miss this one, even if you have to rewind a lot to figure out what people are saying (sometimes they're not actually saying anything!) just go with it. It's a completely unpredictable, very very funny ride (with some genuinely frightening moments). Not to be missed.
