Amazing!!

Rating: 10/10 (16 February 2011)

'Snatch' is an Amazingly written film, that also offers top-notch direction, prolific cinematography & bravura performances from it's stellar cast. Guy Ritchie deserves all the brownie points possible, for writing & then executing such a twisted, dark & violent subject, in such a humorous and stylish manner.
'Snatch' contains two intertwined plots - one dealing with the search for a stolen diamond, the other with a small-time boxing promoter, who finds himself under the thumb of a ruthless gangster.
I rank 'Snatch' to be Ritchie's finest work since 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels'. This flick is one heck of a cinematic experience, that begins with a bang, and continues it's pounding moment all through. Ritchie is at his very best, as a writer & director! Tim Maurice-Jones's Cinematography is prolific.
Now to the performances: Jason Statham is excellent. Vinnie Jones & Brad Pitt are absolutely legendary, while Dennis Farina, Stephen Graham & Benicio del Toro are style personified. Robbie Gee is a complete natural. Alan Ford is first-rate. Adam Fogerty, Mike Reid, Sam Douglas, among others, also deliver wonderfully.
On the whole, A Must Watch for Every Cinema Fan! Two Big Thumbs Up!
