Snatch.. the movie that is in a class of its own. Directed and written by Guy Ritchie, it is his finest creative effort. It has a great combination of comedy and action, and its powerful dialogues like," Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity!" by Bullet Tooth Tony, steal the show. The cast is wonderful. Brad Pitt as Mickey O'Neil, has played a piker, and he means business. Bullet Tooth Tony played by Vinnie jones has given a powerful performance. Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov, played by Rade Serbedgia, is both funny and dangerous. Alan Ford as the cold blooded 'Brick Top'and Jason Statham as 'Turkish' have delivered a fine ...  Read the complete review

The film Snatch is a reasonably entertaining film that treads all the same ground as Lock Stock but with a bigger budget. There's some good laughs and a few good action scenes. Not fantastic but certainly better than the rest of the british ganster dross that we've seen in recent months.

Snatch (2000), or Lock Stock part two as some might call it, is the last great film by Guy Ritchie (seriously - stay well away from Revolver and RocknRolla). Starring plenty of the Lock Stock crew, this film is arguably the better of the two. The reason, for me, why it is better is mostly down to Brad Pitt. Fair enough for women an attractive man but to me he doesn't get enough plaudits as an actor. Great Pitt performances - Seven - Sleepers - Fight Club - Babel - The Assassination of Jesse James - Burn After reading. All of these roles are so different which, in my opinion, highlights his talent. Snatch is very different again, showing him to have ...  Read the complete review
