Review

A jolt of lightning, director Ritchie's comic crime caper is from the Reservoir Dogs and Trainspotting school, but firmly stands on its own as fresh and original. Ritchie has a terrific eye and employs a whole bag of visual gimmicks (grainy sepia, jerky freeze-frame, slo-mo) to lend considerable style to this hectic story of four London pals embroiled in a complex but highly satisfying stew of cheating cardplayers, double-crossing losers, porn paraphernalia, a bag of stolen loot, a forest of ganja and various underworld types. The young cast strikes the right note of nervous energy and tough-guy moxie, and the script is chock-full of snappy one-liners. Ritchie's assured direction elevates this familiar stuff far above other wannabes; the film's over-the-top visual kineticism is perfectly matched with the material. It's a slap-happy acknowledgment of and tribute to all the great underworld classics that paved the way for it, but with an energetic sensibility that somehow seems entirely new.
