By Far Guy Richie's Finest.

Rating: 10/10 (2 September 2006)

What could possibly be said about this film that would hold some relevance? It is brilliant, that is certain. It is fun, that is also true. Most importantly, it is edgy. Snatch is the story of an unlicensed boxing manager (portrayed superbly by Jason Statham) and his footpad, a gypsy bare-knuckle boxer (probably Brad Pitt's most entertaining role since Interview With the Vampire-- or maybe Seven), a ruthless hired gun (Vinnie Jones in his most entertaining role), a stubborn and unkillable ex-KGB officer (Rade Sherbedgia) and a whole bevy of other equally unique and entertaining characters.
The movie features several of my favourite actors: Benicio Del Torro (though his role was short-lived); Jason Statham (again, superb); Vinnie Jones (one of the finest supporting actors); and Dennis Farina (who seems to play a similar role in all his films-- though this was by far the best take on it).
The story is racy, following a web woven through the theory of Six Degrees of Separation-- every major player can be linked easily to several of the others.
It is centralized around a diamond (and a rather massive one, at that), and the gem's path from hand to hand. It seems that each character who lays hands on the diamond finds chaos follows it very shortly thereafter, often to a comedic end.
But, the rest shall be left for the viewer to discover.
10/10.
