Better than Lock Stock

Rating: Null/10 (21 January 2001)

A Better Tomorrow got perfected in Killer and Woo's followups, and so Ritchie does Lock Stock better the second time. Nothing new, really, and if anything, being more familiar with the style you can guess how more of the events are going to wrap up together, but a generally fun ride. A multi-thread caper, some really fun camerawork and nice shots.
As close to Wong Kar Wai doing a straight gangster movie as it gets, chk out Fallen Angels.

Now why did Vinny put the gem back in the case? The plot depends on it, and it doesn't make sense. It nagged me throughout the film.
