Snatch Movie Review - Buy Movies - Rent Movies

Snatch - a diamond heist gone helter-skelter, the rough and tumble world of unlicensed boxing, a colourful Irish gypsy and a dog.

Diamond thief and courier Franky Four Fingers (Benicio Del Toro) arrives in London en route to New York to deliver a huge diamond to boss Avi (Dennis Farina). In his mission to offload smaller stones to Avi's cousin, Doug 'The Head' (Mike Reid) and the other local Hatton Garden jewellers, he is tempted into placing a bet on an illegal boxing bout by Boris 'The Blade" (Rade Sherbedgia). Little does he know that Boris has set him up - and local pawnshop owners Vinny (Robbie Gee) and Sol (Lennie James), along with their getaway driver, Tyrone (ade) are to rob him at the bookies.

Meanwhile, novice unlicensed boxing promoters, Turkish (Jason Statham) and his business partner Tommy (Stephen Graham) move into the 'big time' through a fight with local kingpin villain, boxing promoter and pif farm owner, Brick Top (Alan Ford). But when the novice's fighter is knocked out by Mickey O'Neil (Brad Pitt), a wild card Irish gypsy boxer, the boys convince him to fight in their boxer's place in Brick Top's rigged match. Double-crossing, double bluffing and double dealing abound as different parties pursue personal agendas - all of them illegal, some of them farcical and most of them destined to end in blood, pain and retribution. As plans go haywire and tempers fray, dogs, diamonds, caravans, boxers and assorted weaponry get swept up into a chaotic free-for all. Fast, edge of your seat action, watch at your own peril. Directed by Guy Ritchie
