I've tried to watch it like fucking four times. This is the fourth right now and I just cannot sit through this shit. I keep telling myself, "maybe I just wasn't giving it a chance. Maybe I wasn't paying attention hard enough." But each time I try, I can never get through it. The movie is just really shitty to me. I don't understand this shit. Same thing with Snatch. I must have tried to watch that movie like ten times.

Part of it might be the whole not understanding a damn thing they are saying thing, but even with subtitles, still no dice at all.

I think Lock, Stock is ok, but Snatch is shit.
Guy Ritchie married Madonna too, and she is a stupid cunt. I'd love to stand on his neck.

I thought everybody loved the movie BECAUSE you can't understand them. They talk different than we talk, that makes it funny.
Seriously though, I thought it was great the first time, but I find it harder and harder to sit through each additional time. How far do you actually get into the movie each time? It's a somewhat daunting to keep up with everything that's going on at first, but when it all ties in together and you see what's going on it gets pretty cool.
As far as not being able to understand them, if I can't understand the dialect of a movie I listen to it with headphones. I guess it helps me focus more on what they are saying or something, maybe you could give that a try. That is, if you really care about it that much :p

Snatch and Lock, Stock are fucking brilliant.
But I understand that if u can't understand the language then you will have trouble following the movie.
Watch it with subtitles next time.

I liked it the first time I saw it. Haven't tried to watch it in a couple years though.
I liked Snatch as well, just not as much.

Lock Stock is a better movie. Pitt just puts up a good performance.

If you forget anything I'll kill ya. In fact, you're gonna have to work very hard to stay alive, Nick. Now do you understand everything I've said? Because if you don't, I'll kill ya.

I agree with AareDub that the more you watch Lock Stock, the harder it gets each time to sit through it. But it's still a top movie. I don't know why people don't like Snatch though, Snatch is fucking great.

Haven't seen Lock Stock, but I thought Snatch was awsome.
You Yanks should just be glad it wasn't set in Liverpool or Lancashire:|

Both of them are way WAY overrated by some people (best British film ever? :wtf: ) but they ain't bad.
Guy Ritchie's the ultimate one-trick pony though.
Indeed, Tarantino comparisons are laughable

I loved Lock Stock. Also loved the spin off tv series on channel 4.

I thought Snatch was good.
Lock Stock on the other hand was pretty shit.
I kept hearing from friends about how great it was, so I borrowed it and watched it.
All through it I was thinking something good might happen.
But it didnt.
So at the end I was like :wtf:
Was rather shitty.
Bunch of crapheads.

Good flick, I seriously don't see the dialect in this movie being that difficult to understand where it would become unenjoyable.
We should try making British films that use American slang so 300 million other tosspots can adam and eve it.

British slang is gold.
Yeah Lock Stock's the shit. I juts looked for it online and I can't find it :| Snatch was pretty good but i fell asleep during it so I haven't seen all of it.

Lock Stock and Snatch are both excellent films. So get 2 ponys out your sky rocket and buy the dvd's or your brown bread.

I thought Snatch was fucking hilarious the first time I saw it, and I still found it pretty funny the second time. Lock, Stock was also a pretty good movie, but I didn't like the ending all that much.
