not sure if it is available streaming on netflix, but GO watch this movie. IMO it's Ritchie's best, a lot better than Sherlock Holmes (which my wife loves).

I personally loved Sherlock Holmes as well. I'll have to look for this one, Guys an underrated director.
Is this the one with Gerard Butler?

Yeah he's in it, sort of the "main" character but there a bunch of good actors....Tom Wilkinson, Tom Hardy, Stringer Bell from The Wire, Thandie Newton, etc. It took me 30 minutes to figure out the accents in the movie.

This is a great movie. I rented it a couple years ago and watched it a couple times. The accents are hard to follow and the plot moves so quickly. I enjoyed it more the second time than I did the first.
To me, "Snatch" is Ritchie's best work. Brad Pitt was fantastic as the "Piker".

'The accents are hard to follow"
Ya think?!
Every Ritchie film we watch we're searching for subtitles, then we realize, holy crap they are speaking English.

Seriously good movie, one of Gerard Butler's better roles.

RockenRolla was a pretty damn good movie. Weirdly enough my Mom got it for me. She was like "I think you'll like this" which I usually don't like movies she thinks I will but I did. /cool story

Anyone see Lock, Stock, and Two Smokin' Barrels? If you all like Snatch and Rock n Rolla, you'll like that one too.

I think if you watch 'Lock, Stock and two smoking barrels' first it is much better. Once you watch Snatch, Lock, Stock won't seem as good. But I did like both and I'll check this one out now.

Still need to watch this one.

You really have to pay attention to Rock n Rolla, it moves very fast and it's easy to miss things
