Product Description:
When jewel thief Franky Four Fingers (Benicio Del Toro) takes a slight detour to London on route to delivering a huge stolen diamond to his boss in New York he unwittingly sets off an avalanche of sinister and comic events that wind their way through the rough and tumble worlds of bare-knuckle boxing Irish gypsies pawn shops pig farming and… a stray dog. SNATCH Guy Ritchie’s brilliant follow up to his critically acclaimed Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels exposes us to his hip and helter-skelter view of London’s gangster underbelly. Ritchie’s characteristic fast-paced and constantly twisting story features a madcap ensemble cast of larger-than-life characters including Jason Statham an unlicensed boxing promoter; Stephen Graham his bumbling sidekick; Alan Ford the local underworld kingpin; Dennis Farina Franky’s no-nonsense boss; Vinnie Jones a legendary thug; Rade Sherbedgia a psycho double-crossing Russian; and Brad Pitt in a hilarious turn as a fast-talking gypsy bare-knuckle boxer.System Requirements:Running Time: 103 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: R UPC: 043396015661 Manufacturer No: 01566

Usually it might seem a tad unfair to begin a review by referring to the director’s missis. But then the missis in question wouldn’t usually be Madonna–a woman whose ability to reinvent herself several times before breakfast seems in marked contrast to that of hubby Guy Ritchie. Certainly, this follow-up to the filmmaker’s breakthrough film–the high-energy, expletive-strewn cockney-gangster movie Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels–hardly breaks new ground being, well, another high-energy, expletive-strewn cockney-gangster movie. OK, so there are some differences. This time around our low-rent hoodlums are battling over dodgy fights and stolen diamonds rather than dodgy card games and stolen drugs. There has been some minor reshuffling of the cast too, with Sting and Dexter Fletcher making way for the more bankable Benicio Del Toro and Brad Pitt, the latter pretty much stealing the whole shebang as an incomprehensible Irish gypsy. And, sure, people who really, really liked Lock, Stock–or have the memory of a goldfish–will really, really like this. The suspicion lingers, however, that if the director doesn’t do something very different next time around then his career may prove to be considerably shorter than that of his missis. –Clark Collis

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Snatch DVD
One of my favorite movies. So many great actors I can’t remember them all. One of Brad Pitt’s best roles. Funny, intense, great Brit movie. Not for the kids!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bargain price
For a very good, low price, I got a new, special edition of the DVD, Snatch, Guy Ritchie’s first major film. Excellent company that delivered.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Terrific
Obviously influenced by ‘Pulp Fiction’ but this is a brilliant and original film in its own right. Featuring a terrific cast of many known and not so known actors all creating a character that you will remember and be able to quote by the time the movie ends. That makes repeated viewings all the more fun. Also featuring a clever screenplay and a stylish and very creative direction from Guy Ritchie. Far, far surpassing his feature debut - ‘Lock, Stock, & Two Smoking Barrels’ - in almost every way … Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A movie that has it all
First off, Snatch is an amazing movie in every sense of the word. There are very few movies made where the director obviously did not let one FRAME onto the screen without a reason, and Snatch is one of them. Nothing happens onscreen without it having an effect on the plot. By now you know the plot, or plots. We follow a diamond-heist and the various characters trying to get theirs, at the same time following participants in an illegal boxing ring. The incredible part of the movie is how every scene … Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Snatch–an American perspective
Very good movie and an interesting and engaging plot. Very good acting. But I had a devil of a time understanding anything anybody said–especially Brad Pitt. Maybe that was the point, but I feel that unless I watch this movie about 5 more times, which I ain’t gonna do, I didn’t get as much out of it as I could. Can’t imagine how anyone from Mississippi or rural New England will be able to see this as anything but a foreign language film.
