Product Information
A brutally comic tale about a group of London friends who find themselves deep in debt to an East End tough, LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS is quick-paced, stylized, and highly entertaining. In his debut feature film, director-writer Guy Ritchie weaves a tangled web of shady, blithely eccentric characters and several storylines, all of them coming together in a gleeful explosion of murder and mayhem. When streetwise charmer Eddy (Nick Moran), the son of steely bar owner JD (Sting), botches a gambling scheme with his dad's nemesis, porn king Hatchet Harry (P.H. Moriarty), he's got one week to come up with 500,000 pounds or he loses his fingers--and so do his friends Tom (Jason Flemyng), Bacon (Jason Statham), and Soap (Dexter Fletcher). While the pals scheme to make the money, Harry indulges his penchant for valuable antique shot guns, stolen for him by a couple of inept burglars. Soon the missing guns, a paranoid group of marajuana growers, a mean-spirited debt collector (Vinnie Jones) and his young son, and a violent bunch of thugs, are all thrown together in this tightly-woven, genuinely funny story that takes its inspiration from old British comic gangster flicks like THE LEAGUE OF GENTLEMEN and more recent films like RESERVOIR DOGS and THE USUAL SUSPECTS.

ReviewsEntertainment Weekly - Rating: A - Recommended, New York Times - ...Brash, ebullient direction....The punchy little flourishes that load this English gangster film with attitude are perfectly welcome....A fine feat of macho gamesmanship..., Sight and Sound - ...Stylised wildly at every turn...
The film came out in 1998 and unarguably does look somewhat dated when viewed today though I found it very enjoyable. Its pace keeps the film watchable.
Snatch is getting all the glory but it would not exist without this film.
If you haven’t seen it you won’t be disappointed - it has a great cast and a few surprises.
This movie is is must see. It is a British classic with an outstanding cast and characters. I purchased this to watch over and over again. It was a steal .
If you haven't seen it yet, it's a crime!!!!
5stars!
So much for the spiel about quality control. Not even an original in the box. Not a lot of money so not an issue, just a waste of time and effort. I ended up getting great original from charity shop for £1. Lesson learned
