Thanks bro! As Always!

[@justintime1307]

@Syntell dont know if you've seen the movie yet but Revolver with Stathan is a definite must see

[@chr1998is]

UK Cameraman here. If you wonder in why this film looks unique, as well as the warm looking colour grade. It was shot on 16mm film which made it look super grainy due to the smaller film stock. It is a low budget film made all for $1.35 million.

[@leewildsmith]

Barry the Baptist (the oldish big guy with the mean mug) was non other than "The Guv'nor" Lenny McLean... a legendary street fighter, unlicensed boxer and doorman from London. He passed just before the film was released. Look him up, dude was not to be funked with in real life.

[@scott8225]

There film about him

[@StephMcAlea]

McLean was a notary, a legend, and gent.

[@eggzy2633]

Yeah he was absolutely terrifying, heart of gold as well, never a bully like some of the others - just not to be crossed for sure 😂

[@comeonengland5312]

This is way better than Snatch. It's not in a hurry the way Snatch is. The characters are free to be funny at their own pace, so they're just constantly cool and hilarious.

[@claire4378]

Completely agree

[@chocolate-teapot]

"If you don't want to be counting the fingers, you haven't got, I suggest you get those guns, QUICK!" Some amazing quotes in this film

WOAH!!! Are you kidding me? TWO Guy Ritchie flicks only a week apart?! Can we hope for a mini pattern here? Like one a week? 😂 THANK you for these. I sincerely hope this means yer that much closer to his Rock'N'Rolla, and I KNOW y'all are gonna love his Man From Uncle(!).

[@Memelovespeace]

I love RockNRolla

[@bessythompson1472]

i just commented this a few minutes ago! 😂

[@chefskiss6179]

The massive irony of what y'all said towards the end there, about Guy being able to go up to the likes of Brad Pitt... it was actually Brad that went UP TO Guy(!). He went up to him and said whatever your next flick is I want in. Oh and Brad was so inspired by what Benicio Del Toro did with his character in The Usual Suspects (the voice thing), that he wanted to do it that way for his character in Snatch.

[@neilsun2521]

Yeah I saw an interview with Guy Ritchie where he said he was in America c1999 and got a call from Brad Pitt who invited him over and said he wanted to work with him in future 'cause he was a massive fan of Lock Stock.

[@davidleamore8074]

Don't know if you've seen "Layer Cake". Another British gangster film, but this time directed by Mathew Vaughn. Well worth a watch.

[@davidjones3890]

Seconded.

[@MonkeyMagicMonk]

Sexy Beast was awesome too

[@philipdavidson8420]

"Layer Cake"- - for me, always worth a re-watch every few years, or maybe even more often 😊

[@neilsun2521]

I didn't like that. (Been a while though, so I could be wrong.)

[@nightknight7208]

Barry the Baptist was a legendary enforcer in real life. Scary fella.

[@NeilLewis77]

yep, Lenny Mclean was a bouncer, amature boxer and genuine scary hard man. vinnie jones in his own right was a monster of a footballer who would break legs for fun. jason statham only plays tough guys but hes bloody good at it. Frank harper who plays dog, again is just an actor but not a man to be trifled with in real life. but the hardest man in the movie is the irish doorman at the poker game. steve collins. an actual middleweight champion of the world. outside of martial arts films, its hard to think of a movie with a more intimidating cast. oh ye and theres sting. he will watch every breath you take, every move you make. hes watching you. scary dude. brilliant movie.

[@maryannelizbeth5768]

May I suggest Dead Man's Shoes? It's a gem of a movie with Paddy Considine

[@Reaction-Addict]

Saw this at the cinema when it was released. Epic film, fantastic soundtrack.and so quotable. To this day when say goodbye to someone....... 'It's been emotional '

[@MonkeyFarmFrankenstein]

My friends and I quoted this at each other constantly in high school.

[@kentgrady9226]

Vinnie Jones (Big Chris) is a retired footballer/soccer player. He had a legendary reputation as an enforcer and once held a record (if memory serves) for the quickest red card (that's disqualified from the game for a flagrant foul) in Premier League history. Jones was notorious for violence and chaos off the pitch, as well. He had been arrested and tossed in jail for a bar fight just before filming began. He literally went from a cell straight to the set. Jones gave up drinking some time ago. According to many, he's actually a sweetheart of a guy. A few years back, he lost his wife of many years to cancer, and now lives on a farm in the English countryside. There's a great documentary on him available on KZbin. The guy has certainly lived a colorful life.

[@SSD_Penumbra]

Barry The Baptist actually was a scary mf irl. His name was Lenny McClean and he was a bareknuckle boxer, borderline gangster and doorman in some of the most notorious clubs in London. Also, a really nice guy. This was his first and only movie since he died not long after its release. On set, he'd make the cast laugh. Also, Alan Ford (the barman in this and Brick Top in Snatch) was a close friend of the Kray Twins, London gangsters in the 1960s. Brick Top is apparently based loosely on Reggie Kray.

[@nupefromdaville]

That is awesome to know!

[@TheseDarkWoods]

I saw a 5/5 review of Snatch on TV. My friend and I went and watched it at the cinema. We were floored. I read about Lock, Stock shortly after and got it on VHS… SHARPISH!! Watched it with my dad and fucking looooved it almost as much. Damn, it’s good!! Great reaction, guys! 💙🥂

[@stevenmclaren2730]

I watched snatch and lock stock with you both. Fkn loved them both. Loved them.

[@TreVader1378]

One of the bouncers at the card game was Steve Collins, a legit middleweight champion, beat everyone and all

[@incognito96]

He was a proper hard man.

[@VelvetVoice]

Such fond memories of going to see this for the first time at the Empire cinema in Leicester Square - my buddy and I headed straight to Tower Records immediately after it finished, and both bought the soundtrack album. We have frequently woven snippets of the film's dialogue into the fabric of our conversations throughout the 26 years since - it essentially became second nature to do so. The DVD purchase was ultimately a no-brainer the following year, and it used to get a regular rotation. 🙂I hadn't watched it in years, though, and got some serious nostalgia goosebumps watching through the highlights again along with you guys. Tip-top casting, brilliant characters, so many hilarious highlights, and oh so endlessly quotable. Absolutely LOVE that freeze-frame ending!

[@glennaustin37]

Great reaction guys! A recommendation... Check out the film 'In Bruges' if you haven't already seen. I think you'll love it.

[@DeadlyDan]

Snatch and Lockstock are up there with Pulp Fiction to me, some of the most quotable movies of all time!

[@1972dsrai]

Just a bit of trivia for you guys. Vinny Jones who plays Big Chris was a professional footballer (soccer player) before he went into acting and played for some big clubs including Chelsea and Leeds, but most know him from his time at Wimbledon who he won the FA cup with in 1988 beating my team, the mighty Liverpool in one of the biggest cup shocks in history and he also represented Wales at international level winning nine caps.

Great film. I remember all those guys using the same gym as me back in the day. Tommy Aka Jason Fleming used to come In with his Dad. Weirdly, in the next gym I joined in Battersea was where Guy Ritchie used to work.

[@avidavid9237]

Brad wanted to be in a Guy Richie movie, so he took a minimum salary of 1 million, 1/10 of the budget for the film. He was getting more for his other projects because at the time he was A-list.

[@1972dsrai]

He still is A-list.

[@insanehippiehippieinsane3828]

@Syntell The Bren lightweight machine gun was considered the best lightweight machine gun of ww2 and was ideal for suppressing fire. The magazine could hold 30 rounds. Made in 1930's and in the British Army until 1992. It fired .303 standard cartridges, the same as the Spitfire fighter aircraft.

Not sure I would shout at Steve Collins, one of the very best boxers out of Ireland, ever... "Give me back my money". Held middle weight and super-middle weight titles at the same time. Like Guy says in Snatch... "Harder than a coffin nail"

[@Wang_Monkey]

I like lock stock more that snatch. The interconnectivity feels deeper and the crescendo more satisfying.

[@1stCainite]

The bar scene with the guy setting the other guy in fire, is even more hilarious than just that. The game ended 4 to 0. So the guy didn't even turn off the game at an exciting point.

[@alanhogg9939]

That chef was the boy in The Elephant Man. Love these films! I just got to the end of this video and Brad Pitt The Gypsie was mentioned. I remember, not too clearly, in the DVD extras of Snatch - They were watching Brad get knocked out and fly in slow-motion through the air backwards (filmed in a tank of water). And Guy said something like "Look at that! That's why he costs a million quid!". But he was paid peanuts - Maybe Guy said that the whole scene cost a million...?

[@pyrofan80]

The number of times I’ve watched both Lock, Stock and Snatch and I’ve never twigged that Brick Top is the narrator/bar steward in LS

This was the original, and of course he didn't have the budget of Snatch, but I preferred this one as it has a real charm about it. I saw this at the cinema in 1998 and people were in stitches with a lot of the scenes. Just a crazy story with a brilliant ending with the guns worth a solid fortune. Favourite scene is when the guys come back at dawn and see there flat littered with all sorts of bodies.

[@HarryFlowerrs]

Guy Ritchie got Brad Pitt because Brad loved ‘Lock,Stock And Two Smoking Barrels’, so did Madonna who is always in the know! Don’t forget ‘Kick Ass’ , after ‘Snatch’, Brad worked with Matthew Vaughn producing ‘Kick Ass’, We always make great Art in Britain 🇬🇧❤🌹❤️⚒

[@DaveJMcGarry]

You need to watch "My Name Is Lenny". The story of Lenny McLeans (Barry The Baptist) life.

[@MeatballCereal]

This movie is so stupid I love it. One of my favorites! 27:36 Statham doesn't have a bigger part because he wasn't meant to be the star of the film, Nick Moran (Ed) was, and was pegged to be the next big thing actor, but an inflated ego spoiled his career pretty quick. You've also got Dexter Fletcher (Soap) who played Sgt Martin in Band Of Brothers and was producer on Rocketman, the Elton John movie, and director on Bohemian Rhapsody and the upcoming Sherlock Holmes 3. Jason Flemyng {Tom) was in Benjamin Button, X-Men 1st Class, The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and going WAY back, The Jungle Book. I still want that sheepskin coat Barry The Baptist is wearing when goes to pick up the antique guns from the Kennys.

[@ballagh]

@@MeatballCereal apart from a couple of music video apperances Statham was a model before lock stock. This was the movie that started the career. He had done some market trading but met Guy Ritchie while modelling for French connection, and the street wise persona got him the role. Probably the first and last time he got £5000 for a movie.
