Critics Consensus

Though perhaps a case of style over substance, Guy Ritchie's second crime caper is full of snappy dialogue, dark comedy, and interesting characters.

Wendy Ide

The Times (UK)

Very cartoonish, but still quite a lark, with lots of Ritchie’s kinetic directorial style.

Newsweek

With this morbidly bouncy black comedy Ritchie finds a sneaky way to avoid sophomore slump: by passing his freshman tests all over again. And now for something completely different, please.

Ritchie may be skilled at generating controlled chaos, but his surprise-a-minute strategy ultimately holds no surprises.

As Ritchie's second feature film, Snatch is well done and shows inklings of the master craftsman he will eventually become.

Rated: 4/5

It is unquestionable that the script and direction are of an impressive level that places the filmmaker as one of the most eloquent writers and brightest narrators that emerged from the perfidious Albión in the last two decades. [Full Review in Spanish]

With its good humor, its rather crazy and hilarious story and its beautiful cast, "Snatch" has a very interesting and challenging vision that the director wanted to provide us with.

Snatch brille par sa réalisation unique : le style visuel nerveux, les enchaînements rapides et les récits entremêlés donnent au film une vraie personnalité. Le chaos apparent est en réalité bien maîtrisé, et c’est ce qui rend le début particulièrement accrocheur. C’est stylé, rythmé, et ça capte tout de suite l’attention. Malheureusement, malgré cette énergie initiale et les excellentes performances des acteurs, le film s’essouffle vite. L’histoire devient confuse, le rythme ralentit, et l’ensemble peine à tenir en haleine. La fin est prévisible et manque de punch, ce qui rend l’expérience globalement décevante.

A marvellous film. Outside the industry standards. Actors, photography, direction, editing, music... everything is perfectly balanced.

Wow, this movie is bad. We watched it for 20 minutes and thought, is it gonna get better because nothing is happening. We gave it another 15 minutes and just terrible. Then I remembered, the reviews said it is supposed to get good at the hour mark so we kept watching. Utterly boring and stupid. It never gets better. Even the fight at the end sucks. Save your time, go for a walk, play a game of cards, anything but this sucky movie.
