Summary: Great fun!
Review: conceptwise it's a lot like "Lock, stock". It's very funny and also sometimes very violent. Colorful characters and a great soundtrack. Brad Pitt is hillarious as an irish gypsy. Do not miss!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Movie of 2000
Review: This is yet again an amzing movie by the best director ever Guy Ritchie!!!

This movie with two brilliently acted, directed and written criss crossing tales in one movie. This movie begins with Turkish and Tommy. Two gangsters stuck in the middle rank of the mafia are supporting bare nuckle boxing fights with the all ruthless and evil villain, Brick Top. They go out to buy a trailer from a pack of pikies and meet their leader Mickey (Brad Pitt). After only moments of owning the trailer it breaks and they find they've been ripped off. When the demand their money back their star bare knuckle boxer Gorgeus George is beatten by Mickey.

The other tale of a diamond hiest by Franky Four Fingers (Benicio Del Toro) set to bring back the diamond the size of a fist to New York where his boss Cousin Avi (Dennis Farnia) is killed and the diamond is stolen. Avi then flies to London where he was last seen to find his diamond where he hires a bounty hunter Bullet Tooth Tony.

As these funny and exciting tales continue you never know what will happen next to these crazy characters!!!!!

Summary: Wild, Violent, and Fun!
Review: "Snatch" is alot of fun! You can't help but love the lead characters, even though they are, for the most part, just a pack of losers. Brad Pitt is truly marvelous as the mush-mouthed gypsy (which I read was a take on Benicio Del Torro's "The Usual Suspects" character) and, as in "Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels", Vinnie Jones is a major scene stealer. The plot twists are great and I never found myself getting bored. While similar to "Lock, Stock..." in some ways, it is definately it's own film. If you like your movies fasted paced, violent and wildly funny, then see "Snatch". You will love it!

Summary: This movie feels like another one...hmmmm....
Review: Ok right off the bat I liked this movie a lot, but come on you can't say that this is just a remake of Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. If you can't see the similarities, just look again cause it's pretty easy to see them. I like how Ritchie handles this genre but I really feel that he needs to head in a new direction. Brad Pitt has a great supporting roll and his accent is one of the best I've ever heard. At first you think he's just mumbling, but then you realize that he's actually speaking real words. It's amazing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Magnifique!!!
Review: I saw it about 5 times in cinema and I am waiting 3 June to buy its DVD. For a long time I haven't seen a movie like this!!!

Thanks to Guy, Benicio, Brad and others for this great film!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great film and a fantastic DVD
Review: This film is not a sequal, its not a prequal its just supurb, all by its self! The DVD is literally packed with amazing features, i have seen the film 10 times and everytime i see it i notice something new. The music rocks, the acting is first class (brad Pitt is truely sensational.) and the story line is exciting, original and packed full of laughs. I wouldn't call it a comedy but take this film seriously at your peril!!

Finally a director/writer is showing the world what Britain is really like, we're not all Tea lovers with perfect accents!

Just a tip, when this DVD does arrive in the US, i suggest you watch it on Subtitles, Brad pit is even better when you know what he's saying!! The deleted scenes are even good. Top Film!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A dog swallows a squeaky toy, a man with a DESERT EAGLE!

Summary: Special Edition Features
Review: Here in Oz, we've been lucky enough to get the Snatch DVD recently. But it's worth the wait.

The commentary with Guy Ritchie and Matt Vaughn [the producer] is as erratic as the film. They're never able to stay on topic for long [the producers are giving them sheets listing things to mention], but they do fill the track with plenty of laughs. These guys have got stories.

The 'Stealing Stones' feature is like the 'White Rabbit' one from The Matrix. When the diamond comes up, press on it and you'll see a deleted scene entered into the film.

The picture disc, photo gallery, talent profiles and production notes are the standard stuff, but the way they're presented makes them far more entertaining than usual [see the little characters besides everyone in the talen profiles].

You get a 25 minute 'making of' feature, which I can guarantee will make you laugh. Witness the antics of Bo, the dog, and watch Guy handing out fines to people who stuff up. From watching this you can tell they had a blast making the movie.

6 more deleted scene w/ optional commentary. Good stuff, but you can see why it was cut.

Storyboard to film comparisons. Normally these are dull, but here they're energetic and off three different views. It actually offers moving shots rather than just stills.

The interviews are a little dissapointing, but only a little. It's mostly snippets.

Of course there's the trailers and TV spots, and even song samples from the soundtrack. Finally, another behind the scenes feature, equally as good as the other.

If you loved this movie, you have to get this DVD. You'll love it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Witty with a Whole Lot of Violence
Review: Guy Ritchie knows his way around a movie camera. His last film, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, handed us a bunch of guys down on their luck and out a couple of grand. In this movie we get a group of all-star competitors all on the hunt for a diamond the size of a fist. Brad Pitt, a bare-knuckled boxer gypsie? Dennis Farina, a crime boss? Benicio Del Torro, a crook with a gambling problem? You better believe it. And you have to see it to do so. The editing of the film is exquisite. Every scene you either laugh histerically or you cringe at the gruesome violence. You have to own this one. If you loved Lock, Stock, then you this movie is a MUST own.
