    Snatch is much better IMO. It has some great characters in it, Boris the blade, bullet tooth tony, brick top.

      .. that it lifted from the original Italian Job.

      I don't mind these movies, but part of the issue with them is they're effectively pastiches of genuine British gangster movies. They're fun, but they're just throwaway "pop" movies, of no real substance.


      British gangster movies that are better than these two films:

      * Get Carter (NOT the version with Stallone)
      * The Italian Job (NOT the version with Walberg)
      * The Long Good Friday
      * Brighton Rock (NOT the recent remake)
      * Sexy Beast

      Other British movies that piss on these two films (shortened list, could run to hundreds):

      * Alfie (NOT the version with Jude Law)
      * The Third Man
      * The Wicker Man
      * Dead of Night
      * Trainspotting
      * 28 Days Later
      * Odd Man Out
      * Kes ("Eh up, mam, he's bummed us kestrel.")
      * Brief Encounter
      * Don't Look Now


      Plus probably any David Lean movie, which I've been a **** and haven't watched.
      Some more Quality Brit movies:

      Layer Cake
      RocknRolla
      Harry Brown

        Ah, they're okay.

        As for the question, I did think Lock Stock was better on first watch, but then Lock, Stock never got made into this:

              I wouldn't say the best English movie of all time but both are classics if i HAD to choose i would go with lock, Stock

              I love all of Guy Ritchie movies except for the Madonna one RocNrolla is another classic still waiting on the real RocknRolla

                    Hilarious how everyone gets killed in Lock, Stock, but I'll go with Snatch. It had better production and acting, and the story had less hard to believe coincidences thus slightly better.
