Well to be honest...i think the man is a genious! His films are funny, full of action...and down right BRITISH!

Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrells, this film was a masterpiece.

Snatch...even better than Lock Stock (i didn't think there could have been such a film)

Mean Machine...probably the least favrioute out of the bunch but still, hilarious and British!

Basically, i want to know what everyone thinks of these films, what they think of Guy Ritchie and who was your favrioute character out of the films.

I loved Snatch. It was hilarious. Brad Pitt as the Pikey boxer was brilliant and once again he brought in Vinnie Jones to be the hard man. But despite that my favourite character in the film is Boris the Bulletdodger. It took a full clip just to get him down!

As for Mean Machine Monk was my fave. It was a tad slow for my liking, and the only bit I really found funny was the soccer match.

I love them all, but snatch is my favourite

"What you got a gun for tommy?"
"protection"
"Who from 'ze Germans'?"

*laughs* Oh it's great I love Jason Statham he's just a brilliant actor he truly is. Vinnie Jones had made the transition from footballing hard man to movie hard man flawlessly. He's just great.

Yup, Turkish was played great, The Monk was played great infact...everyone was played great.

For my favrioutes however:

Snatch (my fave out of the 3):
Character: It's quite hard to choose, Tony, Turkish or Avi

Lock Stock (2nd)
Character: Vinny Jones by far!

Mean Machine (3rd..duh)
Character: The Monk the two commentators were great too lol.

I really do love his films, they have witty one liners that can have me laughing for hours lol:

Avi: Eight-four carats.
Rosebud: Where?
Avi: London.
Rosebud: London?
Avi: London.
Jeweler: London?
Avi: Yes, London. You know...Fiish, Chips, Cup 'O' Tea. Bad Food, Worse Weather. Mary Fu**in' Poppins...LONDON!!!

Harold: I think you've let him get away with enough already, Governor.
Brick Top Polford: It can get you in a lot of trouble thinking, Harold. I shouldn't do so much of it.

_____

Tony: Boris The Blade as in Boris The Bullet-Dodger?
Avi: Why do they call him the Bullet-Dodger?
Tony: 'Cause he dodges bullets Avi.

Snatch is my favorite movie out of the three.

And Shinobi is now bannished to damnation because he used th little banter I was going to post, Sigh, great minds think alike I guess ;).

So you'll have to settle for a Brick top quote:


"when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a p*sshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sievin' through pig *****, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig."

Fear the man who owns pigs, and wears cokebottle glasses!
