I am not a fan of Ritchie's hyper stylised way of film making. It is often crammed with unnecessary visual static that feels like him constantly trying to make us aware of how cool and talented he is.

And yet this film kicks all kinds of ass. The plot is all over the place and almost seems like a connected string of hilarious and action packed sketches. Where Ritchie fails to find any real coherence and only manages to provide us with the incidental bit of genius visual creativity, it is the cast that pulls through.

There is simply no performance that doesn't convince or entertain. They carry the material to greater heights and make this one of the finest…

I tried, but I can't write a real review of this movie because it's too fucking awesome. If you haven't seen it, you need to step your game up.

This Snatch drinking game will get you fucked up (I do this all the time, it's amazing)

Take a sip every time you can't understand something Mickey (Brad Pitt) just said.

Take a sip every time you see a pig or the word "pig" is uttered.
Take a sip every time the film reveals an awesome character name.

So after his smash hit Guy Ritchie decided to do the exact same movie again? I'm not complaining that the man stuck to his guns and what he obviously does best, but I was sorely disappointed by Snatch, which is so far the worst in my IMDb Top 250 series. What Lock, Stock had going for it were genuinely funny and memorable characters and while this has plenty of the latter I never once laughed or smiled, instead I found myself in a constant state of indifference throughout the entire film and I can't quite put my finger around what went wrong here. As soon as that robbery early in the movie happened I was already worried and for me,…

Snatch prometía ser la película más cool del año y aunque no cumple su cometido, el intento es suficiente. El director Guy Ritchie se esfuerza por ganarse al público estadounidense —o busca perdón por haber arrebatado a Madonna— y para este efecto, se vale de actores como Brad Pitt, Dennis Farina y Benicio del Toro. ¿Qué falló? Vamos por partes.

El problema más grande que tiene, es la cantidad de personajes que maneja, y aquí es donde uno empieza a extrañar a Quentin Tarantino. Tantas historias mezcladas es un reto que hasta ahora han logrado sólo el mencionado Tarantino, P.T. Anderson (Magnolia), Robert Altman (Vidas Cruzadas) y ahora Steven Soderbergh (Traffic). Pero Ritchie no se detiene, como buen británico, luego…

"For every action, there is a reaction. And a pikey reaction is quite a fucking thing."
I love British Comedies. I love ensemble crime movies involving dogs. And I now love Brad Pitt as a pikey. This movie has team of memorable characters, scenes, and quotes. The main plot point is summed up in that quote. For every action that a character does, there is a reaction from someone else. And the pikey reactions are quite a fucking thing. Even voiceover, which as we all know from Adaptation, is a clumsy narrative device, is used so well and spoken so eloquently, that I am forced to give it a pass. Freddy Four Fingers, Benicio Del Toro's character, is just one…

A smooth, stylish, fast paced, and well edited crime film. I decided to watch Snatch, a movie my friend Tetramoose has seen before, and one I decided to watch without his company. Although Tetramoose has very positive feelings towards the film mine weren't as positive until writing the later half of this review.

Stylistically, the "intro" where it (a little unsuccessfully) attempts to supply us with names for every face in the film was really cool, and made me chuckle with entertainment. To put it simply, it was cool enough to make me smile. The cuts and transitions in this film are funny, add a little individuality, are visually pleasing, and are a brilliant addition to the movie. The humor…
