A Surprisingly good movie

Rating: 8/10 (12 December 2000)

When I entered the theatre to see Snatch, I had some idea of what to get. But I got a little surprised as well. I had read some reviews of the movie, and they were telling me that this was a movie, pretty similar to "Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels". And the movie was, by all means.
But sometimes there is more to a movie than just the plot. Consider the details that you experience in this movie, and you'll know what I mean. First of all, the "Gipsy-Pitt" is a geniously played part. You'll understand 50% of what Brad Pitt is saying, but that's how it is supposed to be. Another detail that is excellent, is the cutting from L.A. to London. Three small cuts, that is mixed together, and makes it understanding that a person leaves from one city to another. Great details here.
As when it comes to the actors, I would say that the two best ones here, is Benicio Del Toro, as a gambling diamond robber (by the way a good Rabbi), and Brad Pitt as a ravelling gipsy. Two genious actors that is escalating the complete picture.
Overall, go see the movie, and judge by yourself.
