Snatch. (2000)
Starring: Jason Statham, Brad Pitt, Vinnie Jones, Dennis Farina
Director: Guy Ritchie
Country: UK
Genre: Crime
Through the last decade films have been playing copycat to this insanely energetic crime comedy by Guy Ritchie. Some might even argue that Mr. Ritchie himself has time and time again tried to copycat it, and the result, unfortunately, makes one nearly desensitized to Snatch’s style. But style isn’t all that makes a film, and what gives Snatch longevity is its amusing line-up of wild characters, and the humor squeezed out of every mucked-up situation. There is no denying that every student filmmaker wanted to remake this when it came out, and that kind of influence shouldn’t be set aside easily. Plus, this film contains one of Brad Pitt’s most eclectic and entertaining performances as Mickey, the fast-gibberish-talking bare-knuckle-boxer gypsy. It delivers on the laughs, on the action, and the cool.
