Snatch
Snatch
It's funny after dissing it during a conversation with a friend, I re-watched it the next day, and it was great! It says something about a filmmaker's talent in writing if he can make a great 90 min movie. The characters were great, I still can't get over the slo-mo when Turkish with the bat is facing those three goons with bats too......that song they played during that slo-mo was trippy.
And I even like it better than any Tarantino flick (even though Guy Ritchie is obviously heavily inspired by him) because there are no stupid pop-culture references! That one joke,
"Vincent, who's gonna rob two black men, holding pistols, sitting in a car that's worth less than your shirt?"
Great stuff! Oh and it was funny how the Pikeys would all huddle up (even if there were dozens of them) and whisper out their solutions.

Snatch
I kinda preferred Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels actually.
"Let's get one thing straight here - I'm not Mr Lebowski! You're Mr Lebowski! I'm the Dude! That's what ya call me? That or His Dudeness or Duder or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing."

If you enjoyed Lock Stock and Snatch, then the third film is Layer Cake which was quite good.
The one and only!
Snatch
"Layer Cake". I will check that out for sure. Also in Snatch, Frankie, Avi, Tyrone, Vincent all such great characters with excellent writing. One of my favorite scenes is in the pawn shop when Bricktop sticks his head in and says," I hope this is not a bad moment."
"When we see the ocean we figure we're home, we're safe."
Snatch
I think its a great film and the script is hilarious
Customs official: Do you have anything to declare, sir?
Avi: Yeah. Don't go to England.
Avi: Should I call you Bullet? Tooth?
Bullet Tooth Tony: You can call me Susan if it makes you happy.
Bullet Tooth Tony: You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.
Brick Top: Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible c**t... me.
Avi: Tony.
Bullet Tooth Tony: What?
Avi: Look in the dog.
Bullet Tooth Tony: What do you mean, "Look in the dog"?
Avi: I mean open him up.
Bullet Tooth Tony: It's not a f*****g tin of baked beans! What do you mean "open him up"?
Turkish: F**k me, hold tight. What's that?
Tommy: It's me belt, Turkish.
Turkish: No, Tommy. There's a gun in your trousers. What's a gun doing in your trousers?
Tommy: It's for protection.
Turkish: Protection from what? "Zee Germans"?
Brick Top: In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary... come again.
Turkish: You take sugar?
Brick Top: No thank you, Turkish; I'm sweet enough.
Turkish: Well, do you want to do it?
Mickey: That depends.
Turkish: On what?
Mickey: On you buying this caravan. Not the rouge one, the rose.
Turkish: It's not the same caravan.
Mickey: It's not the same fight.
Turkish: It's twice the f*****g size of the last one.
Mickey: Turkish, the fight is twice the size. And me ma still needs a caravan. I like to look after me ma. It's a fair deal. Take it.
Turkish: Mickey, you're lucky we aren't worm food after your last performance. Buying a tart's mobile palace is a little f******g rich.
[Realizes his mistake]
Turkish: I wasn't calling your mum a tart. I just meant...
Mickey: Save your breath for cooling your porridge. Hey, look
[starts talking incoherently]
Mickey: Right. And she's terribly partial to the periwinkle blue. Have I made myself clear, lads?
Turkish: Yeah, that's perfectly clear, Mickey. Just give me one minute to confer with my colleague.
[to Tommy]
Turkish: Did you understand a single word of what he just said?
Avi: I'm gettin' heartburn. Tony, do something terrible.
Bullet Tooth Tony: Boris the Blade? As in Boris the Bullet-Dodger?
Avi: Why do they call him the Bullet-Dodger?
Bullet Tooth Tony: 'Cause he dodges bullets, Avi.
Avi: You got a toothbrush? We're going to London. Do you hear that, Doug? I'm coming to London.
[Avi arrives in London]
Doug the Head: Avi.
Avi: Shut up and sit down, you big, bald f**k. I don't like leaving my country Doug, and I especially don't like leaving it for anything less then sandy beaches, and cocktails with little straw hats.
Doug the Head: Avi, we have sandy beaches...
Avi: So? Who the f**k wants to see 'em?
Customs official: Do you have anything to declare, sir?
Avi: Yeah. Don't go to England.

Yeah Bullet Tooth Tony and Avi have some of the best dialogue until Avi shoots him. For example "Why do they call him the bullet dodger?" "Because he dodges bullets Avi!" or "Open him up" "Well its not as if he's a can of baked beans, what do you mean open him up?"

Re: Snatch
This is one of my favourite three films. Lock Stock is gud but nos as gud as Snatch. If you like Vinnie Jones in films then I advise you to watch mean machine, its taken from the longest yad and is about football (soccer).
Do you like dags?

Re: Snatch
i love this film, every time i watch it i laugh my head off!
like when vincent sees tyrone the fat getaway driver and says "I thought you said he was a getaway driver. What the f**k can he get away from?"
Vinny: Why are we stopped here? What's wrong with that spot?
Tyrone: It's too tight.
Vinny: Too tight? You could land a jumbo f*****g jet in that
Avi: Eighty-six carats.
Rosebud: Where?
Avi: London.
Rosebud: London?
Avi: London.
Gemologist: London?
Avi: Yes, London. You know: fish, chips, cup 'o tea, bad food, worse weather, Mary f*****g Poppins... LONDON
[Tyrone just backed into Franky Four Fingers' van]
Tyrone: I didn't see it there.
Vinny: It's a four ton truck, Tyrone. Its not as though its a bag of f*****g peanuts, is it?
Tyrone: It was at a funny angle.
[All three turn and look back at the truck]
Vinny: It's behind you Tyrone. Whenever you reverse, things come at you from behind
Sol: He's a natural, ain't you Tyrone?
Tyrone: 'course I am...
[reverses into parked van]
Vinny: A natural f*****g idiot.
Turkish: It's an unlicensed boxing match. It's not a tickling competition. These lads are out to hurt each other.
so funny!

And the fact that on the side of your guns it says replica R- E- P- L- I- C- A should account for the fact that your balls are now shriviling up :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin:
