movie review - Snatch

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Sydney, 2000.11.10

Funny, fast, violent. Pitt chocks up another great performance, and shows how far he's come since his dismal earlier days. This movie is from the same writer and director as Lock, Stock, and two Smoking Barrels, and features half the same cast.

Recommended.

The point isn't revenge. It is justice. Revenge is like a wave that washes up on shore - it always washes back out again. Justice is like the shore - it's still there after the wave comes and goes.
