Just stumbled upon it. It's been quite a few years, and despite having seen it probably four, maybe five times, it is still one hell of a movie.

Ritchie topped with Snatch then fell off a cliff.

If directing hugely successful Sherlock Holmes movies with RDJ as the lead is falling off a cliff, I'd think most directors would like to have that happen to them.

RocknRolla is solid as well, though not nearly as good as Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

This and Snatch are in my top five. I love this movie and always tell people to check it out.



Eddie: They're armed.
Soap: What was that? Armed? What do you mean armed? Armed with what?
Eddie: Err, bad breath, colorful language, feather duster... what do you think they're gonna be armed with? Guns, you tit!

Lock Stock is Ritchie's best achievement IMO. I liked Snatch, but it was just the same gags and jokes from LS, but with actual movie stars. And these two films were the last time I was able to stomach Jason Statham.

I like the Sherlock films alright, but it seems like GR too often falls back on his fast movement camera tricks too often. It's like he's incapable of making a movie that wouldn't induce seizures.

It's one of those movies I can watch anytime it's on. I will have to give RocknRolla some love. Mark Strong (Archy) and Tom Hardy (Handsome Bob) were terrific.

I've never watched this from beginning to end. Have it on blu ray. So many great actors in it.

One of my favorites that I can always fall back on. It never gets old. I guess I would have to put it above Snatch as well, seeing as how I've seen this movie about 10x more than Snatch.

They made lots of money but they were nowhere near as good as Snatch.

If you think it's the greatest movie line ever, you may want to quote it accurately.

"You're not funny, Tom. You're fat, and look as though you should be, but you're not."

But hey, what would I know.

He's so money in that movie. Flip. I'm watching it tonight.
