Review: Some viewers think that this is a British take on the "Pulp Fiction" aesthetic, but it is much more than that. But there are quite a few parallels. The lead foursome are extremely likable, and the supporting cast of characters are incredibly entertaining. The writing is hip, hilarious, and truly intelligent. The storyline is fairly complex and well-crafted. The camera work (in several scenes) is really engaging. Gets better with repeated viewings. With this price, they're giving it away--"it' a deal, it's a steal, it's a sale of the century"

Review: Apparantly Tom Cruise likes this, oh dear thats not a good start - but look on the bright side.... he also like Nicole Kidman. The film. Totaly fab, the dvd extras are a bit disapointing, but I am still so chuffed that I got the region 1 version as the cockney dictionary is so surreal. Some complained that the end was a wholsale rip off of the great 'Italian Job' - and the problem with that is? There is nothing wrong paying homage to the original 'just walk into any east end boozer and you can pick up a sawn off' movie. Some great performances and hugely entertaining. But quite why it is recomended next to Analyse This is a bit of a mystery. And besides it keeps Vinnie Jones out of harms way.

Summary: Good flick
Review: Even tough this movie continues the trend to somehow depict a group of criminals as 'good guys' it is still a very entertaining show. Each time I began to feel symapathetic to our 'heroes' I had to remeber that they were cop-beating criminals and as such belong in jail. Still the show is entertaining and worth a rental. Not worth a purchase, though.

Summary: Good movie.
Review: This movie is funny - but be careful kiddies of the violent bits in the film! Anyway Eddie (Nick Moran) thinks he and his mates are the smartest, coolest guys in town. But when Eddie loses $1.5m in a card game they must cook up a plan or be cooked themselves! A funny, violent, weird and wacky movie to keep you on the edge of your seat! Look out for Dexter Flecther!

Summary: Lock stock and two smoking barrels is the new Pulp Fiction
Review: Lock Stock is a good humor UK crime comedy, funny but violent. A gang of London Backstreet gamblers, find themselves in big trouble, when they loose a card game, and they end up in a Shoot em up contest, fighting over shotguns with a drug dealer. Starring: Jason Fleming (Spice World), Vinnie Jones (Former Football player) Dexter Fletcher (TV's Press Gang) and Sting (Dune). LOCK STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARREL is the new Pulp Fiction with twists,I give this comedy. 10/10.

Summary: Brilliant!
Review: This has got to be the most beautiful fiasco I have ever seen. I loved the fact that it was very difficult to follow at first, and that I was kept in the dark about many things (i.e. burning man exits a pub.) It's the funniest what-the-hell-is-going-on film I have seen in years. Clever camera work also.
