A ravasz, az agy és két füstölgő puskacső

Négy dörzsölt gengsztercsapat garázdálkodása egy eredeti forgatókönyvírói és rendezői koncepcióban, amely egy új alműfaj hullámát indította el. Egy kis bűntudatot érezve csak négy csillagot adok egy olyan filmnek, amelynek megingathatatlan helye van a gengszterfilmek arany állományában. Ha 1998-ban láttam volna a Blöff előtt, ami tényleg még csiszoltabb, a teljes szám egyértelmű lett volna. (2011.09.14)

Maybe Ritchie took over the genre of witty gangster films from Tarantino, but both here and especially in Snatch, he proved that Quentin, with his first films, can skate. I'll probably never understand how a screenplay with such characters (the black guy from the bar speaks for everyone), plot (half a million, junkies, machine gun, cop, and a lot more), and directorial gimmicks, with which Guy completely brims, can be invented. Chill soundtrack, the beginning of a new era, and the creation of a cult parody. (2006.02.19)

Guy Ritchie is sometimes inaccurately referred to as the British Tarantino. In any case, his distorted dark comedy about eccentric characters of the British underworld, full of slang, unbelievable vulgarisms, and one-liners, as well as characters, motives, and misunderstandings, has achieved extraordinary resonance, and Ritchie successfully imitated the same style several times. The film is significantly influenced by music videos and commercials, and for the sake of authenticity, the director even used non-professional actors - the small-time criminals, whom he cast as members of the British gallery. It was entertaining, fast-paced, and filled with great filmmaking energy. The term Ritchie Style was born... Overall impression: 90%. (2013.02.15)

The incredibly well-thought-out script, which beautifully leads to a typically "Ritchie-esque" ending from the very first scenes, hand in hand with refined execution, forms a unique whole, which is a joy to watch with pure cinematic pleasure. By strict standards, the carefully dosed blend of violence, pitch-black humor, and all sorts of absurdity are filmed at a rapid pace, where detailed camera movements persist, just like the quick editing or low-angle shots of the slowly walking characters. But beware, this is no Michael Bay film! Ritchie has a very distinctive storytelling style in which he somehow omits the main characters and only outlines the diverse panorama of London's underworld. It must be acknowledged that due to the effort to be witty and cool at all costs, sometimes Ritchie slips into gratuitousness, and the plot becomes overly contrived. But who cares if you're rolling on the floor laughing? I certainly don’t. (2005.11.17)

Very decent. The plot is not overly knotted, but it has such lightly written dialogues and such elegant directing that you just can’t help but have fun. Even the main characters are worth it and will surely satisfy everyone who likes this kind of criminal caricature. In the end, Snatch probably drew me more into the action, but I still had a great time. (2007.04.16)
