Pros: Quick, convoluted scrip. Interesting directing style. Cons: The violence level is high. Substance abuse, gambling, and torture of an old couple.
After watching Snatch, I knew I had to sit down and watch this one. Director Guy Ritchie brings us this convoluted tale of: illegal gambling, loansharking, two antique rifles, a sport's mad mob boss, and cannabis. How all of this ties up into one...
Pros: Brilliantly crafted, wickedly funny, this movie is hilarious and rapid fire. Cons: Body count 16. F-Bombs, 125. If this does not bother you, no cons.

Pros: Acting, Directing, Screenplay, Camera Work, Soundtrack, Dialogues, the whole Production Cons: Language [English, that is]
Thinking of the upcoming days of the forest in California I find myself grinning at a thought that it will destroy itself. Good movies no longer belong to it and the new talent prefers to stay true to itself and stay away from the mountain on the west...
Pros: Fun little movie
Cons: Flat ending. To complex for it's own good at times. Difficult British accents.
The East of London is a place where the tourists usually don't set foot. It is to London what Hell's Kitchen in to New York or South Central is to LA. East Enders are not the cream of British society. If you need drugs, or some sex toys, or ...
Pros: Humor will have you rolling on the floor, You get to learn a new language Cons: Violence and death violence and death. subtitles don't always help
Roughly translated in Cockney Rhyming slang the title means "I can't face your nonsense (the word rhymes with 'Pitt') today.
This movie is Guy Ritchie's second, although practically nothing is known about his first,...
Pros: Great acting; funny storylines; good characters; its just good Cons: a lot of bloodshed
To begin with, this movie is not Hollywood. You don’t need the strong Cockney accents to tell you that much. The thing that underlines this is the style of moviemaking. It is not flashy, its not particularly noisy and there are no mushy sidelines, or in...
Pros: Direction, acting, plot twists, soundtrack, genius ending Cons: plot is confusing on first viewing
After watching Snatch and looking into other Guy Ritchie films I knew I had to see Lock Stock and two smoking barrels. So I finally rented it and I loved it. When you compared it to Snatch (Guy Ritchies follow up film) they are similar ...
Pros: Fast paced, clever and original comedy Cons: May alienate some American viewers
For me this is one of the best movies made in recent years, but it is definitely not going to be for everyone. It is an incredibly funny and entertaining story of four likely lads out to earn an easy buck.
Pros: A frollicking, feisty flick as far as dialogue, style, and storytelling goes. Cons: Unfairly accused of stylistic plagiarism.
Machismo abounds in Guy Ritchie’s Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels (the most adorable caper flick since the Coen Brother’s Fargo): that petrous-pecked, leaping-tall-buildings-in-brilliant-bounds, clumping, thumping, goosestepping, biceps-flexing...
Pros: Incredibly fast plotting and so many pieces that you're blown away when they all fall into place Cons: A bit hard to understand the dialogue and things fall a LITTLE too neatly
Fifty-five inches.
That's why I saw the movie. Fifty-five inches. Fifty-five inches of glowing pixels projected against a flat fiberglass screen. For Christmas, my friends had gotten a huge 55 inch projection television, and we decided to...
Pros: direction, acting, plot twists Cons: a bit trendy and derivative in style
"Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels" is an exciting, fast-paced, hip crime/drug dealing/violence/quirky young British film. These are the films' strong and weak points, depending on who you're talking to. Some adjectives I heard were...
Pros: Cracking Pace, Great Dialogue, Brilliant Film! Cons: Yes! A few of the actors are, indeed, real criminals!
Every moviemaker has one movie by which all of their other work is judged, and this will be Guy Ritchie's.
In case you don't know, he is British, and married to Madonna.
Only one of those two facts really matters though, and it ain't being...
