Surely someone can understand Brad Pitt's accent...

Rating: 10/10 (4 May 2006)

If you thought that Guy Ritchie's first movie was whacked-out, then get a load of this! "Snatch." has a rather convoluted plot, but the pace makes it worthwhile. Focusing on several groups of criminals trying to capture a diamond, it's basically a series of crazy situations. The weirdest (by which I mean "coolest") aspect is of course Brad Pitt's incomprehensible accent. But the other characters also have their own things to reveal about themselves.
All in all, a great movie with lots of fun. Pitt, Jason Statham, Stephen Graham, Alan Ford, Dennis Farina, Rade Serbedzija, Benicio Del Toro and Vinnie Jones all do a great job. Which of course begs the question: WHY IN THE NAME OF ANYTHING HOLY DID GUY RITCHIE HAVE TO FOLLOW THIS UP WITH THAT GOD-AWFUL "SWEPT AWAY" REMAKE STARRING (SHUDDER) MADONNA?!!!!!!!!!!!!!
