If your looking for a superbly enjoyable film, Snatch is that film with great performances from an all-star cast filed with a brilliant plot and script coupled with wicked Brit humour. Snatch is one of those films that will remain unforgettable (especially the characters) even after the years flow by. The film basically has different types of characters leading different goals in life but ultimately meet at the end over the films main tie-in, a diamond and a boxing match. The plot in more detail goes as such; Franky Four Fingers (Benicio Del Toro;left) scores off a Grade A diamond for boss Cousin Avi (Dennis Farina; right).
However, Boris the Blade (Rade Serbedzija; left) heard of the diamond and wants it for himself. So, he hires the Three Stooges; Sol (Lennie James), Vinnie (Robbie Gee) and Tyrone (Ade) to rob Brick Top's gambling pool to take the betting money and in the process get the diamond.
Turkish (Jason Statham) and Tommy (Stephen Graham) are in the boxing business and have Gorgeous George as their boxer. However, in an eventual meet, they lose their prize boxer to a pikey by the name of Mickey (Brad Pitt). In the video below, you might check on the interaction at present between Tommy and George with Mickey when buying a trailer from Mickey.
Mickey is presented with a thick accent intact courtesy of Brad Pitt. Scene goes down as Mickey sells Tommy a trailer without wheels (cause pikeys are generally tricky bastards) and so Gorgeous George, Turkish's boxer gets agitated and fights off with Mickey. Turns out, Mickey's a bare-knuckles champion making him as 'hard as a coffin'. With a match coming up, Turkish needed a fighter. Who else but Mickey. Brick Top however being the organiser of this illegal fight decides that Turkish owes him for the last minute change and now Mickey has to go down on the fourth round. Well, viewing the next video, you'll soon see why the group find themselves in a load of shit.
Brick Top (Alan Ford) below is the sort of individual that 'don't take no fucking shit from fucking anybody'. If he wants it, you better give it to him. And if you don't, you get whats coming for you. If you met face up with Brick Top, you will shit your pants.
What happens next is that Brick Top knows about the Three Stooges who hexed a botched robbery on his gambling spot and heads off to their headquarters. See video below for an overly stimulating metaphor of 'as greedy as a pig'.
Seems that Brick Top's got caught up in the search for the diamond and does it get any better than this? FUCK YEAH! In the form of Bullet Tooth Tony (Vinnie Jones), the badass motherfucker in the film. Tony is employed by Avi to help find who has the diamond. He gets the name from being shot in the face 6 times and still standing (literally). View him in his splendid glory in the video below about balls and such. Favourite scene in the movie.

And so, as you can tell, the plot's one brilliantly constructed web connecting all the characters together to pump it out. That's what Snatch is about. The lively characters that inhabit the set piece of Britain's underworld gang top engaging in an endavour of dialogues, witty lines and everything. What makes it worthwhile is watching the story unfold upon itself and the situations that are thrown into the frame. A very funny film nonetheless. FUCKING WATCH IT.
