The Year Of The Heist (2001) kicks off with a gem

Rating: 8/10 (11 October 2002)

2001 was no doubt the year of the heist movie. Snatch came out in late 2000, but I'll count it anyway. It is a great film, with great dialoauge. It's cast of characters is original and ingenious, and the Rabbi scene in the beginning is classic. Benico Del Toro was made for his role in this, as was Brad Pitt. If you count this movie as a 2001 release, it is the first great movie of 2001 (that I saw). 8/10, B+, *** out of ****
