One hell of movie!

Rating: 9/10 (3 July 2009)

So today I watched this movie Snatch, directed by Guy Ritchie. What an amazing movie!! A delight to watch; I mean I had heard that movie but this good.I had never expected.
So the movie is basically about all these criminals trying to snatch things from each other. Story starts when a man named Franky Four Fingers smuggles an 84 carat diamond to London to sell to a jeweler on behalf of his boss. And then a lot of crooks and biggies get involved. And everyone is trying to snatch something from others; hence the name Snatch. Now this storyline may seem very familiar to you; and in a sense it shares some flavor with The Departed and Babel, but the real killer is the way story is told. I have got to give to Guy Ritchie. I mean what a comedy! The criminals in the movie are not white collar ones, they are the bums for whom crime, violence, theft, debauchery is a way of life. And each of them has his own idiosyncrasies; which ultimately screw him up at some point or another. And still all of them continue so nonchalantly through all the mess. And I just can't describe to you right now how great the way story is told is. One of the best I have ever seen. And the performances from all the characters are mind blowing. Especially the one from a character named Bullet Tooth. And as for me, it showed me the world in way I had never seen.
So I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes gangster movies in general and would like to watch a hilarious spin on it.
