Of coarse, the MPAA didn't allow the film makers to get away with that here in the US, but it really speaks volumes about the kind of film Snatch is. If this tagline doesn't make you smile, stay away from Snatch. But if you like to have fun at the movies without moral lessons or three hour character pieces, Snatch is the answer for you.
Snatch is fast, furious and funny.
It's directed by Guy Ritchie, best known for being married to Madonna, and like his last movie is a seedy, London crime story where a handful of colorful characters collide over massive amounts of money. The central story focuses on a diamond, but there is also illegal boxing, Jewish robbers, and pigs that eat human remains to deal with too. If you liked Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, you'll like Snatch. It's basically a more expensive, more funny and more well acted retread of the earlier movie, and I guess that is my only complaint. But I'm not complaining that much.
