Summary: HAVE YOU EVER SWALLOWED ANYTHING-ON PURPOSE
Review: I like this movie!

It was alot better then The Usual Suspects!

Snatch is about these not to bright people who want to steal a stone-er diamond!

And it was one beau-tiful stone!

Brad Pitt was funny as always-even though you couldnt understand anything he said-it was funny!

Throughout the movie I kept saying-what did he say?

And it seemed his pals couldnt understand him either!

I wanna buy this dvd-cause I know it will come with great extras!

I bought a dvd player!

I must have like-9 0r ten dvds!

Summary: The Coolest Movie Ever!
Review: Snatch is one of the best DVD's I have and a true Must Have DVD for a Movie buff or guy movie junkie.Snatch's story is one of the best I've seen in years,It gets a little confusing but pays for itself in the end.

The best characters in the film are Mickey,Tyrone,Turkish,and Turkish's partner Tommy. But the character that steals the show is the Dog (you'll see him a lot).

The Boxing scenes are some of the best I've ever seen and are some of the best ever on film.These are great and suspenseful and funny in some parts.

Also you may want to watch the DVD with the subtitles on to understand what the Pikeys are saying especially Brad Pitt's character Mickey.

Some of the best scenes have to do with the Pikeys. Watch closely because they are hard to understand.

Summary: It Looks Better Than It Is
Review: I had heard a lot of good things about SNATCH before I eventually got around to seeing it. And when I did see it, I found myself feeling vaguely underwhelmed. It's not a bad film; there are many great individual scenes. But as a whole, it didn't quite work for me. If I was feeling unkind, I might say that I was unimpressed because, after all, I'd already seen it the first time, when it was called PULP FICTION.

That is a little unfair of me. SNATCH isn't a total rip-off of that film. But much of it seems very familiar. I've already seen the scene of two tough characters having a conversation in a vehicle about irrelevancies. I've already seen people shot or run over for comic effect. I've already seen apparently dissimilar gangster plots become intertwined through massive coincidences (and I think Quentin Tarantino's film was better at making its separate plot strands converge logically). In short, I really didn't feel that the story I was watching was very original at all.

On the other hand, in a purely visual sense, SNATCH was astonishingly clever. The camerawork is quick, inventive, and very original. There are lots of little camera tricks, quick zooms, and flashy effects. Fortunately, director Guy Ritchie is focused enough not to allow these to become annoying. But even as the story was boring me, the direction kept me paying attention. I would almost recommend this film to someone purely for its visual style.

I think the main thing that turned me off of this movie was the fact that I simply wasn't interested in any of the characters. Unpleasant, unsympathetic people can often work well in movies. You either want to cheer for them anyway, or you want to see them get what's coming to them. But neither occurred here. I simply didn't care if any of them lived or died. The characters were far too superficial for me to invest interest.

And despite the large cast, you get the feeling that they all live in a tiny universe -- a universe where the characters in this film are the only people who live in it. That's the only explanation I have for why they keep running into each other, when the simple law of averages would suggest otherwise.

In short, I found SNATCH to be a case of style reigning over substance. It's not horrible; I just didn't enjoy it very much. If I want to see PULP FICTION, then I'll just watch that film instead. That said, I did like Ritchie's use of the camera, so I'll probably look for some of his other films, hoping that he has a better script there to go with his directing skills. The problem was that the directing tricks didn't stick with me. While I had a vaguely positive view of the film immediately after viewing it, the next day I realized that the only things I enjoyed were a few hilarious individual scenes and the optics. The movie as a whole just bored me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Top Notch Movie
Review: Snatch is a brilliant movie with a good plot all the different stories come together in the end. Brad Pitt is Brilliant in this film with an unforgettable accent. This film is an instant, buy don't even bother renting it you will end up buying it anyways

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good movie
Review: This is a good movie that is at first a bit confusing as you get introduced to so many characters very quickly. However, it is an interesting story with a couple of twists. It is a movie you'll enjoy the first time around, but you probably aren't going to watch it again for a while.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wild and wacky, action packed movie.
Review: Sorry, I don't agree at all with the editorial review. This film keeps one's attention glued to it as the various story lines and characters interact. I found this movie not only to be action packed, but hilariously so. While Brad Pitt is genius in the role of a gypsy bare-knuckle fighter, Jason Statham, with poker faced portrayal of a illegal fight promoter is his best role yet. He makes you laugh with his slightly sarcastic remarks and his seeming confusion about just how he got himself mixed up with this crazy gypsy and the most dangerous fight promoter by the name of Brick Top who has an unhealthy affinity for pigs. I never tire of watching this movie and find myself laughing each time I do. I highly recommend this movie to all those who like action and humor.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A definite movie to own
Review: The first time I saw this movie I hated it. I later decided to give it a chance and loved it. I think you have to see the movie a couple of times to really follow and be able to understand the accents in the movie. Brad Pitt plays a great role. Jason Statham and Vinne Jones also make this movie a definite to watch again and again. I would definitely buy this DVD if I was considering it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good
Review: I can watch this film over and over again. Alot the characters are lovable and some you just want to feed to the PIGS! It contains thieves, boxing promoters, pawn shop owners, trailer park trash, bookies, and the mafia all doing their own business when a small object of desire will bring them all together into one fusion of death, fire, and fury! If you like Lock, Stock than you should see this one cause you will like it just as much. About time you can understand what Brad Pitt is saying with the 'Pikey' option so only when he talks on the film a yellow caption in the bottom tells you every single word he is saying except the time when he explains to the boxing promoter what he exactly wants in his new trailer if he wins a big up and coming bet! Good movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome movie!
Review: This is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. And it is much better than Ocean's Eleven(even though that movie rocked). Brad Pitt did an amazing job as the incoherent irish gypsy(I just wish I could talk like that). And... well dont listen to these people that say the movie is terrible. They obviously must think that movies like Crossroads and Charlie's Angels are good entertainment. Bah!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best movie ever!!
Review: I can honestly say this is the best movie ever made!! No movie will entertain you more than this!! With hilarious performances by all actors, the whole multi-plot format with everything coming together, and hilarious dark humor, what's there to not like about this movie?

This may have copied ideas from Pulp Fiction, but it totally kills the movie. If you want to be entertained to no ends and laugh till you cry, this is the movie!!
