The funniest Conincedence in a film ever!

Rating: Null/10 (2 January 2003)

*** Minor Spoliers Ahead ***
I think you have to come from England or at least have a good understanding of English culture (or more importantly the Cockeny Accent) to FULLY appreciate Lock Stock. However this film should still appeal to everyone.
Techinically the film is brilliant, the cinematography is first rate, the sound track turns the film from being fast paced to being slow dark and sinister in an instant, and each character having their own little theme tune works really well, I particularly like the electric guiter riff that accompanies the character 'Dog'.
The chronology of the film with the storyline is very clever and sometimes makes things very funny, for example as the boys are walking into the pub they are met by a man on fire coming the other way which we find out about later whilst developing Rory Breakers character.
This was the first film I had ever seen with Vinnie Jones in and I have to say, he's good for the film he gets away with being able to play himself! He is well suited to the roll and performs what is probably the most gruesome part in the film when he kills a man by repeatedly slamming a car door on his head! Just like his footballing days...
Sting deserves a mention too, not the best actor in the world, but suits his chracter well, with his cool calm 'don't give a sh*t attitude towards the crime bosses.
Anyway, you should see this film, if you live in england you will roar with laughter at the sear hilarity that the london Scene and cockeny accent brings to it, and if you are outside the UK you will still find this film funny and is worth seeing.
10/10.
