Hi everyone! What grade (out of 10) would you give this video?
9
9/10
10/10
9/10
9 1/2 out 10. Put the scenes in proper sequence it would have been a 10. This is my #2 movie in my top 5. Love Guy Ritchie, and his dialogue and directing style. The Gentleman is right there on my list as well.
I remember critics shitting on his performance because they couldn't understand what he was saying. Absolute masterclass in missing the point...
It's just stupid, Brad cannot act worth adamn
That's critics for you they critisize , I always say the best critic is yourself, I've enjoyed many a film that the critics said steer clear of.
It's easy to sit back and criticize, it's hard to go out and 'do'...Brad Pitt is a do-er, has played many brilliant roles and this is a great example of just one.
@@DemocracyManifest I would say one of the best roles he played was in 12 monkeys
No way critics said that. They must not have even paid attention to the movie. The movie literally said they are hard to understand when introducing them 😂
For any non UK citizen, I don't think you guys realize how perfect this guys traveller's accent is, my mind is blown every single time I watch this movie
It's not a UK accent.
@@DamianBrown Lots of Irish Travellers spend time in the UK, that's why it's plausible to have the film set there. People in the UK are exposed to the Traveller accents so many know what they sound like.
@@DamianBrown potayto; patato .
He doesnt sound like a real knacker at all...
I’m from the uk and live down road from pikey site. His accent is perfect!!
This entire movie was spectacular from start to finish. Guy Ritchie was a genius with British gangster movies and if Americans would have understood it, Pitt would have won an Oscar for this performance.
one of my favs. wife hates it, lol
Exactly!!! But the American movie Industry has always been woke
@@AdamLee-ll4ts i guess the real star of the movie - ‘Brick Top’ is a bit much for most women to handle 😂
@@arthurpascua9643So,what's that got to do with understanding this movie
I agree, this, Lock Stock, The Gentlemen and Rock n Rolla are movies I could watch over and over again and not get bored. Man’s a genius
That single tear that rolled down Tommy's cheek was such a great touch to an already epic scene!
One of the best scenes in this cinematic highlight. You are formally placed in the role of Tommy. Fear, hopelessness and then anger again. His trembling and the tears - I'm really impressed by Steven Graham ("Tommy"). The arguing of the "wolves". It all seems somehow familiar. Guy Ritchy has really worked his magic here.
you're absolutely right. Very powerful moment.
it was the way a huge hollywood star was so interactive with the others - not trying to upstage them at all. True pro
That’s the genius of Guy Ritchie
Bradd Pitt’s best role shoulda got an Oscar, made that movie him and Boris and the dog, and the gangster guy, and Saul and etc etc brilliant film,
I hate pikey’s,
Became a British buzz saying for yrs.
Gary you hit the nail on the head. Of course Ritchie is a gr8 film maker but you're dead on in my opinion. Brad absolutely kills this role and the heart of his performance truly shines through by how he makes you feel just as invested in his whole group of family and friends even though they have so few lines because of his subtle genius way of making you understand there's no Mickey without the whole group. Just the epitome of unquestionable loyalty to one another regardless of circumstances.
Had no idea until this video that it was a star lol
@@theldrocks1222 🤣🤣
Been saying it for years. Acting is becoming someone else and convincing others that you are someone else. Brad Pitt as Mickey was once of the greatest examples of an actor becoming a convincing version of someone completely different to themselves. Should have got an Oscar for Best Actor.
except his accent is so bad that hes clearly a yank acting
Yup and Denzel, Johnny Depp , Robert Downey jr are pretty dam good too and making you believe they are someone else
"Acting is becoming someone else...." literally the most basic definition of what acting is....thanks captain fucking obvious. Did you figure that one out all by yourself.
"What a disgrace. They should cast an actual gypsy!" - media
@@flybeep1661 Take it easy dude
I was on this set and it completely changed my opinion on Brad Pitt. He was brilliant. And he stayed in character even in between scenes. Very impressive performance - one of his best. And a great career move
Amazing!
I watched this movie so much in my 20's that every time I drank I fell right into his character. I drank a lot in my 20's and needless to say my ex was not a happy caravaner
@@ampini212 she dead? 🤣
For me, Brad Pitt proved his acting chops in 12 Monkeys. That was a brilliant performance.
I love Jeffrey Goines!
Also ... Floyd.
He's a great character actor and comedian. I feel that if he wasn't as good looking, he would have many more roles like this and would be just as well known for doing them.
@@Kalleesto Perhaps, but he's capable of making his own decisions about which roles he does. Look at George Clooney, who no one would call homely or odd-looking. He does heavy-hitting drama and he's also not worried about doing comedy and looking a little silly. Clooney reminds me of Cary Grant, whose career included wacky roles like in Bringing Up Baby, but also Hitchcock thrillers like Notorious and North by Northwest.
Brad copied Dennis Hopper 100% from Apocalypse now. Brad was not original in 12 Monkeys.
For me it's the nameless stoner in True Romance. Incidentally also Gary Oldman's best role ever as Drexl.
I came here to say this
If you've ever been around travellers, and a lot of British people have, you'll know this was a stellar performance by Brad Pitt. That he's also an American makes the performance almost incomprehensibly good. He lived with tinkers for a few weeks to get, as well as the accent, the mannerisms, the little touches like how to react to the barking dog, the choice of words for the ad libs - this was masterful.
Thats really fascinating since Guy RItchie said that Brad Pitt had LOADS of trouble doing the accent. So much that they considered switching the role for him
@@urosbugarski2380 That's mad. I can't even believe they would think that, let alone utter it out loud.
His accent was bang on... I went to primary, high school with travellers (and I'm from an Irish family), it's pretty near perfect.
He stayed with a guy who lived down the road from me to practice for the role - Bobby Frankham , nephew of Jonny Frankham , a gypsy middleweight boxing champion from the 50’s , google “Brad Pitt Bobby Frankham”
To an Irish person it's far from perfect.
@@TheSubpremeState It ain't Irish
It's just, well.. Pikey
This movie proved that Brad Pitt is far more than just a pretty face. He really can act! This was a very difficult role to play, and he did it flawlessly. Kudos, Brad!
Legends of the Fall, showed me Brad is a fkng beast of an actor
This movie came out after Fight Club, Twelve Monkeys, Legends of the fall, Seven etc. I think he had already proved that he could act.
Problem is, even though I find him a very good actor, he doesn't always commit to the role like this.
@@subutaynoyan5372 He's hit and miss. Sometimes I'm watching the character, and sometimes I'm watching Brad Pitt try and be the character.
12 Monkeys proved he could act way before Snatch…
Watching the movie for the first time I was totally blown away by Brad Pitt’s acting. No cringe moments; pure perfection in the role. 👍
Yep, have always liked Pitt's characters, but now totally impressed by his genuine acting chops... kudos!
If you haven't already, try Kalifornia with Pitt. Another amazing performance you would never expect
It’s truly unbelievable isn’t it
Fight Club 2..
Without a doubt Pitt should have got an Oscar... having dealt with travellers in a professional capacity he absolutely nailed the part... from accent to mannerisms... totally nailed it..
Living in Ireland pretty much all of my life and working within the construction sales area for some years I dealt with certain types of Irish Travellers that had very similar mannerisms & accents and a certain business deal ethic that could confuse the fuck out of you. I was blown away by Brads performance when I first saw this movie, I feel even the best of Irish & English actors would struggle to pull this off with such authenticity.
Love it..."certain business deal ethic" !
Well said. 🤭 Great film on many levels!
Ireland is a beautiful, beautiful country! I was lucky enough to visit & spend time there and it was everything I ever imagined and more.
@@elizabethr.110 Around the year 1998/1999 I heard a Multi-Millionaire say to his ensemble and cohorts.
"I don't care who you are. Richard Branson.Anyone. Tou will never beat a Pikey in Business and in my 68 London years I can endorse that.
Best Of Friends.Worst Of Enemies:)
This film is still in my top 7 favorites
@@Isleofskye What about a jew?
@@elizabethr.110 I want to go so badly...
Not just Pitt. The entire cast killed. I think this was a high water mark for Guy Ritchey as well. It's a collection of amazing wit perfectly delivered. When Statham tells Pitt to try and look like a boxer, the brief expression on Mickey's face is priceless. Even the whistling dog was crazy funny.
Maybe… but it kinda feels like the “explain everything in crayons so North America understands” version of Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barres
@@tylerpeacock8245 I couldn't agree more mate, but it doesn't stop me loving this film.
Different films for different moods.
Coming from the Netherlands I guess we are still agreeing about north America! Boris Johnson was a weirdo, but compared to the orange Trum or the 128 year old Biden, we still stay drinking buddy's! Cheers (proost) to the both of us! But I do like dags.
@@kolonelfranz31 We strive to persevere.
@@RARenfield I can guarantee we do to! Always wanted to visit the British islands. Drinking everybody under the table and be the last drunk standing in a pub is high on my bucketlist. Have heard so much about your drinking skills, but the British tourists in Amsterdam have always disappointed me so far. But those we're not fair matches, because they always are stoned as f#ck before the drinking begins.
"You stay until the job's done!"
- absolutely love this line! What a great film and performance!
The first movies I saw Brad Pitt in were Snatch and Meet Joe Black. It’s difficult to imagine that these two roles are played by the same actor. He is truly talented.
Of course in the case of Snatch it doesn’t hurt that it’s overall one of the most entertaining movies ever made. I must have watched it a dozen times.
Those were your first Brad Pitt movies?! You were either raised in a cave or are a very youthful fellow.
@@fredlodge1275 I lied for the sake of brevity. I had seen him in Twelve Monkeys and Se7en, and didn’t like his performance in those.
@@ralphclarkSe7en and Fight Club?
@@pkzin2279 yes loved Fight Club although it didn’t begin to stretch his acting skills the way Snatch did.
I think Se7en was the first thing I actually saw him in and I hated it. He mumbled his lines and particularly in the scene where it was pelting down with rain I just couldn’t make out a word. I also didn’t really get his manic performance in twelve monkeys when I first watched it - but looking back with the proper context you can see he is giving it his all. It was just me. Once you’ve seen the rest of his work you can only be amazed at the guy’s range and conviction. He’s all in. He seems to conjure a fully fleshed person out of thin air.
I’ve no doubt Pitt is one of the most talented actors in Hollywood if not *the* most.
Even in a film he doesn't like, like a certain film he did with Harrison Ford(his problem wasn't Ford, it was the general mess that the production proved to be), Pitt always gives a decent performance, but when he really likes a role, you can tell that he did.
One of Guy Ritchie's masterpieces. Brad Pitt added so much spunk to an already fantastic film. He's certainly proved his versatility over the years. BTW, this is one of my all time favourite flicks.
This just popped up in my recommended videos. I guess I know what I'm watching this weekend.
@@SpokenByElswyth while you are at it, look for "Lock, Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels"
YOP 💞🔥🔥
100%. A severely underrated and underappreciated film. He had a few misses, but this and Lock Stock and 2 Smoking barrels are fantastic
besides revolver and lock stock 2 smoking barrels? snatch is one of the best but I like revolver better with jason statham
Brad Pitts best performance hands down. You'd think throwing an American actor in this role would ruin a British movie, but Brad really came through!
Phenomenal cast in this movie. No weak links. Brad Pitt, Jason Statham, Alan Ford as Brick Top, Vinnie Jones, Dennis Farina, Benicio del Toro, even the "All Bets Are Off" woman was terrific.
that and the 12 monkeys
WAR MACHINE
@@mattdakin5893 nuh man war machine was kind of weak
I guess it’s easier to do an Irish accent than a British accent. Brad pulled off the Irish traveller accent well, but I’m sure his British accents (Welsh Scottish and English) wouldn’t be great
golden brown on the knockout scene is so fucking epic
Wow! How many memorable movies has Brad Pitt been in? Moneyball, The Big Short, Oceans 11 (12 & 13), A River Runs Through It and Once Upon A Time In Hollywood just to name a few. He always delivers.
Fight Club, Troy, The Mexican, Seven, even Thelma and Louise...
I was a Gypsy/Traveller Liaison Officer in the Uk for a number of years, meaning I visited a lot of encampments trying to negotiate with them to behave or move on. This is the only Traveller movie I've seen that feels genuinely authentic, Brad Pitt absolutely kills it. I was frequently asked if I wanted to fight, but they always respected my polite 'no thank you' 😆
Like you, I worked in a Gypsy liaison office many years ago. Nobody who hasn't experienced travellers first hand can possibly know just how well Brad portrayed them.
@@kolonelfranz31
Nobody cares about the dutch. You’re all soy
@@kolonelfranz31 European Romani/gypsies and these people aren't same, we have some Romani population even here in Turkey and you are correct if you give them a place to live they would settle down and adopt the culture. Especially in 80s Bulgaria displaced a large Turkish and Romani population into Turkey and after only 40 years you can not guess they are actually Romani anymore, living ordinary very similar lives expect still eating pork lol
On the other hand British travellers are mostly Irish origin and blame UK for it so they have no intention settling down. Even if you give them land most probably they would sell it and return nomadic life.
@@kolonelfranz31Firstly, the Roma's are a different breed of people. Comparing to other travellers communities they are very small grop in the Netherlands.. Secondly, please don't try to portrait the Dutch policy toward any kind of travellers as friendly or open-minded becouse it isn't. Thirdly, they are all treated as the outcasts especially the Romani ethnic groups.
Why doesn’t the uk government round these gypsy in to camps and dispose of them
That one single tear that Tommy sheds at the end is amazing. One day people will acknowledge Stephen Graham as the amazing talent that he truly is (he was fantastic in Boardwalk Empire too).
Not many people watched boardwalk empire, I thought he was epic as Al Capone
Stephen Graham is a class act!
@@James-fb9wn I’m pretty sure a ton of people watched Boardwalk Empire. I was late in the game & just watched it this year.
@@shannoncraig2147 I'm going by the amount of people I've met that have never even heard of it. Their loss
Not too shabby in Taboo either.
Love how Brad just has a moment of clarity and flat lines anyone who tries...one of my favorite movies of all time...Thank you Guy Ritchie.
Every role was played brilliant. Whole movie and cast deserves a 10/10.
The greatness of this role lies in how Brad simply enjoyed it. He never tried to steal scenes. Easily one of the most pedestrian performances I've seen from a star of his caliber.
The actor playing mickeys mate with the red mullet was actually the one trying to steal scenes. He wasnt really cast, kinda friend of the director asked for a small role if i remember correctly.
Well said, well said
@@swskitso ”the mullet” had one of the Main roles in Guy Richies film before Snatch, so a little more than a friend.
@@mindstagemtg kinda was generalizing the situation not the friendship.
My sentence structure was lacking, i guess i should have included the word situation to clarify.
The kind of friend of the director asked for a small role situation.
@@swskitso I though Flemyng was all good in Lock Stock
He’s off the charts here. Brad Pitt is such an amazing actor that when he’s not the lead role he never steals the camera from the lead actors; he has incredible memorable second tier roles like this one and many other movies. One of the best actors of his generation if not ever honestly
I love how he gave the guys playing his group room to react & emote to what he was doing. It all pays off when he's knocked through the wall & they help him back up. It really feels like this is a group of people who've spent their whole lives backing each other up through thick & thin.
12 Monkeys was his best role, but yeah...what you said.
@@EdBert he was amazing in 12 Monkeys.
he's the best as second lead tbh
@Sulla I agree that role was better because he was a lot more important to the story, but hey he still make an amazing impression here in less time, without stealing the whole film. That confirms how great of an actor he is
This movie is a masterpiece, first time I saw it I almost shit myself from laughing so hard. Unbelievably quotable, fantastic storytelling and stellar performances. I think Guy Ritchie hit his absolute high with Snatch. Oh and let's not forget that there are SO MANY awesome characters, in two hours it managed to create of universe of fantastic and memorable characters, that franchises these days need one movie for each. This movie is THAT good.
The sound thy put over that final punch was masterful! Pure gritty power.
I don't care what Brad has done before this role, this is it, this is "The Role", I'm surprised this film did not get even a nomination for Oscar. Brad is absolutely spectacular in this role, hell, the whole film is a masterpiece. Frankly, I’m sick and tired of a polished style of American filmmaking, I just love British grit. Everyone has done a great job in this film, everyone. Oh, yeah, and narration by Statham is spot on too.
Your comment should get an Oscar for most accurate summary of a movie and character portrayals.
Good, but no Fight Club.
@@sharpe8888 Easily better than Fight Club.
@@budtron183 Nor easily but FC was outstanding as well
Because Fight Club and 12 Monkeys were both better movies, but Brad did nail the role of a Pikey here.
I worked in the scrap metal industry for 30 years. Pre 2012, when paying cash for scrap was made illegal, probably half of our gate trade were "travelling folk " of some kind. Brad Pitt is the only actor I have ever seen who has convincingly played a traveller.
Is traveller the pc term for gypsy?
@@BardiaSaeedi How about 'Caravan Utilising Nomadic Tradesfolk?'
@@BardiaSaeedi an Irish Traveller is different from the Romani people who are often referred to as "gypsies". In Ireland the only recognised term for this ethnic group is Irish Traveller, or just Traveller
@@joshuaperraton6748 Ah! I was wondering why they were being called gypsies. To me, before this clip, romani and gypsy are interchangeable. So you are saying these "gypsies" are ALL people of irish ascendency? So I'm right in assuming Brad Pitt does in fact sound a bit irish (even if the beggining of the scene says it's not quite irish nor english; their dialect).
@@jeanlundi2141 He's saying travellers have nothing to do with gypsies or Romani people. Where did you read anyone say that all Irish people are gypsies? :D
one of the best movies ever made! think ive seen it at least 20 times alrdy and still is a joy to watch everytime again!
definitely one of brads best jobs i rly gota admit that.. but all the others did a truely astonishing job in every single scene! a true masterpiece
Even with as many people who absolutely love this amazing Movie, it is stil criminally underrated!
And Brad Pitt's character, Mickey, is a big reason for the Movie being so great!
The entire Cast is just... Perfect!
I think Pitt himself said he loved the whole 'Britishness' of the set up. He loved not being given full Hollywood mobile homes and a staff of servants, felt 'normal' in a way he rarely if ever can feel and he was greatly amused by how he'd be given a cup of tea during breaks rather than being asked what 5 star food he'd like delivered by personal courier.
That relaxed and appreciated atmosphere seems to come out in his performance.
Indeed
Lock stock and snatch were the last 2 great British Films
@@Gianfranco_69 you need to see 'The Gentlemen" it is GREAT
@@Gianfranco_69 Rock'n'rolla... Even better
@@be.stoic1985 Rock N Rolla sucked.
Not just Brad Pitt, the whole movie is awesome. I kinda miss seing Jason Statham playing in this kind of film.
Another great one is Spy. Stratham is hilarious. Kind of a parody of his action roles.
@@sorayaassar1602 that was shit.
@@sorayaassar1602 This is his second movie and huge breakthrough after LSATSB and after that he becomes commercial
Yeah Statham is funny as fuck playing a cockney.and anyone that grew up with travellers knows that this is how they act some of the best hustlers ye get 😂
@@protestant8419 thats where he got started but i think The One was his real break through because he decided to train with Jet Lee instead of just learning dance choreography like most action actors
Brad Pitt didn't need to convince anyone that he's a great actor. But he's so good, he did it anyway.
Thank you, YT!! This showed up in my queue. I saw this film a long time ago, barely remembered anything, but knew it had some great characters, and I liked it. I thought about it from time to time, trying to piece snippets together as they came back to me. And here it is! I’d never have recalled the name, but now I’ll just snag the DVD. Awesome.👍
This role Brad played was such a treat - unexpected, understated, funny - and it was clear how much fun he had. I like having the translation of his speech now, here.
I don't know about you, but this was, hands down, an Oscar-worthy performance. Pitt was the PERFECT fit for this role.
Agreed!!
I also agree 👍. Seriously, is there any role Brad Pitt can't play? I love him!
Oscars are too snooty to see the genius of some of these roles! A worthy performance none the less.
Absolutely
Untrue, it doesn't sound Irish at all.
This is the best movie ever made.
Ive watched it countless times, never skipped scenes, never turned it off until done, always all the way through.
Not many movie hold up that well, and none THIS well.
The best movie ever made.
The punches Pitt throws in this movie are always so fast they're invisible. Impressive.
Brad Pitt's greatest role. Watched this movie a hundred times with my kids, who know the entire script by heart. Pitt should have gotten the Oscar for simply saying 'periwinkel blue'. Kills me every time. Anybody who doubts Pitt's abilities needs to see this movie.
It's the one movie my two brothers and I can recite from start to finish. Fantastic script.
you shoulnd't let your kids watch such a violent movie with swearing. Terrible
I would watch it a fair amount to on DVD. I just revisited it with my nephew few weeks back. Such a great movie. His character is hysterical. The entire cast is great.
@@bruddahbruddah8486 who cares the swearing, that never hurts anyone, but the violence, why is so common for people to ignore all the violence, that things actually ruins the kids minds.
basically everybody needs to see the movie - they should be at least 6 maybe 8 ys old before they watch it . rewatch every 2 ys
"Save your breath for cooling your porridge." that is such a brilliant line from an overall brilliant performance from Brad. This is a classic in his catalogue, different from but just as quality as: Fight Club, Se7en, Troy.
Don't tell anyone, but when Mickey said that line, "Save your breath for cooling your porridge," I fell in love. This really shocked me bc I could have sworn that I was a straight male the entire 53 years of my life prior to seeing Pitt/Mickey in this Perfect movie.
Also, you said Brad's performance here was "just as quality as" --- but bc you didn't put "etc," I insist on adding "Meet Joe Black" to your list :). Now I'm going to watch this movie again right after I make supper here in a bit . . .
Golden brown, texture like sun
Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with golden brown . . .
12 Monkeys, he was phenomenal in that!
If you liked Mickey watch Pitt in Kalifornia .
With Duchovny and Juliet Lewis.
I didn't even recognize Pitt till his name came up. His trailer trash accent is a class act😮
Yes, in addition: 12 Monkeys, A River Runs Through It, Burn After Reading
One of my all time favorite movies. Great quality acting all round and a good story. They dont make em like this anymore. and it seems they never will again.
This whole movie is like something straight out of a comic book panel. Absolutely gorgeous.
Guy Ritchie did fantastic movies before he married Madonna and went belly up. Thankfully he's redeeming himself lately. Sherlock and game of shadows.
One of those movies you could watch a thousand times without it getting boring. With the music this movie is just an art.
100% watched it so many times but every scene is engaging. Classic like Rocky.
When you subtly quote it and some one vibes and quotes back. That feeling of understanding. It's legit. Super under classed cult classic that many haven't seen or heard of yet get it once they do. Haters gonna hate but it's just a little chaotic masterpiece in my mind. Before Statham and others were normal Hollywood.
Brad Pitt is a master at the craft. Period.
the whole movie is in another world, the acting, the scene set up...and the great musicccccccccccccccccc....well done writers cast and Guy Ritchie
This is by far the best acting Brad Pitt has ever done. As the story goes, he called Guy Ritchie and told him he wanted any part he had in a movie. Ritchie said he couldn't afford him, and Pitt said he didn't care what they paid him, he just wanted a part. I think he ended up taking $250,000 at a time when his usual pay was somewhere around $20 million.
One of the best movies too
He did well. I like him in Kalifornia as well.
No the story is that he loved Lock Stock, and wanted a part in Guys next movie. Brad couldnt do a British accent, so got the part of Mickey.
Fight Club too
@@mynameisomehowtaken Not only that, but according to Guy Ritchie, he re-wrote the script to include the character Mickey specifically for Pitt
Benicio del Toro's performance as Fenster in Usual Suspects was Pitt's inspiration for Mickey. Obviously the accents are different, but Pitt was so taken by BDT in Usual Suspects, that he wanted to pattern Mickey's cadence, and general incomprehensibility after Fenster.
During rehearsal, he asked del Toro's permission to play Mickey's dialogue as he did. Great respect between two masterful actors.
Two complete different accents.
@@cincin4515
Never said they weren't. Reread what I wrote.
Brad Pitt is del Torro, same person, just use makeup to create Spanish persona. All is not what it seems in Babylon, Hollywood.
Actually he based his mannerisms and accent on a guy who lived down the road from me , gypsy Bobby Frankham , nephew of 1950’s UK boxing champ “Gypsy Johnny” Frankham . Google “Brad Pitt Bobby Frankham”
And they are also weirdly doppelgangers :)
I remember watching this for the first time and was blowing away how good the movie is with all the storyline and actors. Never got tired watching it over and over again. I even named my dag snatch after all. Lol
This is one of my all time favorite movies.
Shit yeah. He should’ve got an Oscar for this role. They could’ve hired a Brit but Brad really brought it. I trained in the UK for a few years and I can tell you this is not easy to do if you are not from there. Also, Statham was at his best before he became an action star.
@Cock McBalls - The answer to that is simple. He will never be Partick Stewart or Kenneth Branagh. So what. He knows it too. And he is OK with it. Why? Becaue of... money. And there is nothing wrong with it. All depends how much the contract is paying, and most of his roles are "easy" in this case. Just go through the motion, take a check, job done. At the end, no matter how anybody is going so spin it - all of entertainment is about money.
If you want something different, go back to the roots. Do a theatre as an actor. Go for it. it is also amazing, but it is different experience than movies as such. I bet Statham is going for money. And I agree with him 100% (considering his background). Life is short.
@@tannhauser5399 Yeah hes more of a Dwayne Johnson, Jason Mamoa, Bruce Willis
Statham was fantastic in Lock, stock & two smoking barrels as well.
@@oldschooldude8370 - because that was the "raw" Statham. First movie. Almost from the street, spotted by Guy Ritchie. Pure raw talent in a way (not being far away from his real life experience "playing cards", selling fake perfumes and jewellery on the streets of London) :)
funny thing is they gave Pitt this role because he couldnt fake the brit accent
For those who may have forgotten ? Even though it was on a bit part really, Brad Pitt's role as the Complete Stoner Druggy 'Floyd' in the movie 'True Romance'
was also played to absolute perfection. If you have never seen 'True Romance' ? you really should watch it.
Amazing movie. My absolute favorite of all time, with the original ending where she walks away and says something like “I guess Clarence was a loser after all, gonna find me a real man”. Lol
'condescend me man...I'll fuckin kill ya, man...'
don't forget his role in Kalifornia. his borderline "psychopath in training" character really showed he could get socially ugly and in depth. i feel it was a direct opposite of his Joe Black.
In Kalifornia I didn't even realize it was Brad Pitt till quite a ways througbh the movire
Maybe some cleaning produts😂
This is probably one of the most underrated movies, & for sure underrated performances from Brad Pitt, that I can think of. Absolutely brilliant 👏
I can't even begin to guess how many times I've watched Snatch. It may very well be my all time favorite movie. All of the characters were great, the lines and scenes were great, and the movie as a whole was so well put together.
Same. It's me and my Mom's favorite movie. We watch it about twice a month almost every month. Laugh just as hard every time.
Same here, I love this movie.
@P. R. I word it a little differently, but yes, I say it pretty often myself.
@P. R. Never trust a man with a pig farm
im still saving it to watch it someday ! just like Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown,Goodfellas i know them all just havent watched them whole from start to finish just shorts
Such a great movie, with memorable characters, and a clever story line.
the best part of the movie is when mickey is on the couch drunk. he literally tells brick top he is going to kill him. "you will get yours"/ give it a listen. not many people picked up on it, not even brick top.
And endlessly quotable !
Great movie, lol....oh dear😂
thanks, man!
Anything to declare? Yeah, don't go to England.
Accent was perfect..and mannerisms..brilliant film and cast
That scene where Tommy is surrounded by the travellers is perfect
I remember watching this stoned after coming home from a party. No sleep. A couple joints. I remember crying from laughing. Good times. And yes he nailed it.
Thanks for sharing your life with me
. I just finished work and read your comment
You just gave me a really great idea, mi lad!
@@donfryskhd7662 hahaha sure, enjoy ! ;)
@@DmantopG cool you are welcome :)
He really didn't tho. Jesus Christ, Family Guy does better Irish accents
This has been the only film in my life, which I watched from start to finish then reloaded the DVD and immediately watched it again. Hands down my favourite movie of all time.
What's the name of this movie?
@@relax9086 Snatch
The only other film I watched twice in a row was Goodfellas (Had to rewind the VHS)
I don't know if it's his best role but he definitely had a lot of fun with it! It shows in his performance and everyone loved it!
That was an improv when the dog jumped up ....brilliant as he kept in character
Hands down his best role. And hands-down the most underrated movie there is
He was pretty good in True Romance.
@@EricGentile agreed
Its not his best role. His best roles were in Fight Club and even better in Twelve Monkeys and in Seven.
@@EricGentile Stoner Brad Pitt remains one of the most hilarious roles in recorded history
It's a rubbish movie, easily pleased
This is probably my favorite character Pitt has played. Never gets old.
For action and character? Mickey. His Jesse James though, was amazing too
@@PlaguedOutlawSayianMomma never saw it, I’ll check it out.
I feel like tyler durden from fight club was way cooler!
@@beachtroll4023 nah, no no NO! Mickey would fuck that punk UP
@@beachtroll4023 if Tyler Durden was a piker, he'd be Mickey lol
Great video. Love the edit
Love this movie, I've picked up and use so many quotes from it.
I remember first watching these scenes and figuring Mickey was just speaking gibberish. I was watching it with my then-wife and I rapidly realised she could understand pretty much every word. But I could pause, rewind, replay, and still - nope - didn't understand a word of it LOL. Such a brilliant example of his acting perfection. His cheeky shrugging grin after the knock-out in the ring! So brief, so perfect.
Gonna go out on a limb and guess you’re from the US and your then wife isn’t?
Truly one of my favorite movies. It's a whole, complete thing: the acting, the characters, editing, soundtrack, camera work. It stands up to repeated viewings. Pretty much perfect.
Achilles in "Troy "is my favourite Brad role, followed by "Once upon a time in Hollywood", where he plays a stuntman called Cliff, a real life former badass special forces operative.
Man, he must have took the criticism of The Devil's Own to heart. This performance is just legendary.
One of the best movies ever... People always throw the "Oscar" thingy around. Well, Pitt really deserved one for this performance for sure.
He only spent one day filming as well.
Oscars is just kissing each other asses anyway, it would be an insult to get one. Great film.
This movie was hilarious. I've watched it a dozen times just to try to figure out what Brad Pitt was talking about. Thanks for the subtitles.
Have you ever seen “Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels”?
I believe it’s by the same writer/director if I remember correctly. Great film!
th-cam.com/video/HY7mRdQuUSw/w-d-xo.html
@@charlesburow8120 Yep, along the same vein. London underworld, some of the same actors. Great movie too. I like Guy Ritchie movies. He's kind of like Quentin Tarantino of G.B. Bricktop was a beaut.
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha yes!
I have the director's cut DVD back in the day and at 2:39 the subtitles just had a "?" for the next bit. Laughed so hard.
dags
When we were younger we used to play Ricky Picky our friend little brother was named Rick ,we gave him a stick with nails in the end and he would chase and if he caught us well now you understand the name of the game. It taught us to be faster than the next guy.
I've had this movie in my collection for about a year, and never got around to it... After watching this clip yesterday, I watched the movie last night! God I was missing out. I haven't laughed so hard in a while!
And after the whole ride, the ending is just pure cathartic harmony!
Fight club and Lock, Stock next.
@@baldieman64 Long time fan of Fight Club, watched Lock, Stock the next day... Brilliant! LMAO
@@greencertifiedweb Good stuff. It does seem that Mr Richie is coming back on form. The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare looks like fun. His Sherlock homes movies are also worth a watch.
@@baldieman64 After Snatch, I watched all of them, even Revolver, which I wanted to like but didn't! King Arthur was pretty good though.
@@greencertifiedweb I confess that I've never seen King Arthur. I might give it a watch.
Other than Ritchie and Tarantino movies, check out Legend and In Bruges, if you've not seen them.
Brad nailed the shit out of this.......not an easy accent to perfect , I was born in Belfast and lived in Southern Ireland Limerick for a time in my later life and Brads delivery and mannerisms where spot on (having encountered the real deal this was an epic effort worthy of one of those little Gold statues) just an overall epic film great work Mr. Richie
It’s called an Oscar I think
Absolutely his best role ever. I'd even say the best role ever, and Brad Pitt nailed it perfectly!
Coffin nailed it.
Clown 🤡
Id say its tied with Seven years in Tibet as a couple of his worst films.
@@StreetTruckinTitan I have to agree. 🏆
eeh, a great Irish yarn did all the work in this one, great acting but also in Fury, 12 Monkeyes was prolly his best acting.
"Nobody brings a fella the size of you unless they're trying to say something without talking" - man, this movie is full of quote gems!
I loved this movie, so many iconic moments. Brad Pitt's pikie, Sol's shotgun, Bricktop's pigs, the sausages. A great movie all round!
Snatch in every way was a very memorable and so rewatchable movies of all times.
Almost every character has so much iconic one liner dialogues in the movie, probably no movie had so much of impact screen presence for most of the characters as this one had.
Credit goes to Guy Richie, one of his best, if not the best.
And lock stock and two smoking barrels
@@blakeross5272 yeah that one too
Brad Pitt was brilliant in this, he is an exceptional actor when given quality roles. But Stephen Graham's face at the end was a flipping master class in using facial expressions to convey emotion. Up there with Bob Hoskins at the end of 'The Long Good Friday'. An early hint at the great actor he was destined to become. Check out 'This is England' to see just how great.
Was just thinking this! being able to show people being scared without overacting scared...i can almost feel the lump in the throat you will have in that situation based on his facial expressions and mannerisms.
Graham was really great in “This Is England.”
I’m watching him now in “Taboo” with Tom Hardy.
Graham also had a role in "Gangs of New York."
Great comment.
I'm glad someone else appreciates Hoskins' acting in those last couple of minutes.
It's like watching the seven stages of grief playing out on his face, finally ending with acceptance.
Incredible.
There's only ONE Stevie Graham 😀...ONE Stevie Grahaaaam...
To me this role was like he drew heavily from the role He had in 12 monkeys. His performance in both roles was very convincing I might add. His performance in12 Monkeys was what changed my mind about his acting ability. Until that point I saw him as someone the studio's pushed solely because of his appeal to young women.
I discovered this movie completely by accident. I didn’t quite get it the first time through. By the third viewing I was hooked, and have been ever since. Occasionally I’ll drop a quote from this movie and someone will pick up on it, but the movie seems to be fairly obscure to the majority of people I come across. It’s almost like being in a secret club to have a response to my challenge. Suddenly I and the other person will start trading lines and discussing our favorite scenes, and probably don’t even know each other’s names….
but can you speak Cant?
I first watched this film when it was released in cinemas. I went back a second time as I was blown away, mainly because of Brads performance! What a Masterpiece Guy Ritchie made. Along with Lock Stock, these 2 movies are in my top 10 easy!!
The Gentleman
Really wish he'd do more movies with the theme and tones he used for Snatch and Lock Stock.
@@Sevatar_VIIIth The Gentleman
@@jesussaves3248 my brother tipped me off to that one, I'll watch it tonight. I'm assuming it goes back to his old style of Snatch and Lock?
@@Sevatar_VIIIth You should watch Rockanrolla if you haven't, it's basically Snatch with different characters
guy ritchie is a master. i've watched both lock stock and snatch about 50 times each, i kid you not. these films don't get boring _ever_ and pitt in snatch is just amazing. everything about it just works and flows and feels authentic. it's about time i watched it again.
guy ritchie made 1 good movie and costed off it
@@bobshagit9503 two actually, snatch and lockstock
@@dd.4910 lockstock wasnt that good
@@bobshagit9503 and what have you made apart from being an embarrassment to your mother and father, who are clearly related?
One of the greatest movies of all time. Guy Ritchie deserved an Oscar.
Thanks. Good to be reminded that there are actual talented actors and filmmakers.
Snatch is one of those gems you forget just how good it is. Then you rewatch it realize it's too damn good,and try to explain to your girlfriend why you've been doing push-ups and punching holes in the drywall all morning.
Brilliant
Check out Kalifornia. I find not many have seen it when i mention it. Awesome movie. Brad Pitt is great in it.
Ahahhhaaa. Nice
@@derrickcaddell2577 correct, he was good in Kalifornia as well. He's good in basically everything he does
The scene with Timmy against the wall praying for his life touches me every time.
Everyone did a great job in this movie.
I love several Pitt movies but this is a great one. The fact that we all now he isn’t cockney yet he pulls off the complete gibberish of English Gypsy is a testament of his skill.
Love when he says, "Save your breath for cooling your porridge."😆
What blew me away was how Pitt's punches looked faster than the eye can follow. It added to how convincing he was.
🤣
Mickey sitting in the corner with his hat and a smoke doing the tosser to the boos is just plain epic.
"yeh stay till the jobs done" one punch, then golden brown fades in. brilliant piece of editing.
This and lock stock are 2 of my favourite movies, brad pit is a fantastic actor and not just in this role , he doesn’t have a bad movie, he’s a legend, a legend in a legendary movie
Brad played this role perfectly and it would be hard to imagine anyone else playing the part even half as well.
Nobody else would even get an offer to play this role as role as written specifically for Brad. He is a good friend with Guy and asked to give him some small role in his new movie but Guy told him he cannot have huge star is some small role and he would create a character just for him. Rest is history
Honestly, WOW. What an INSANE performance this is. The accent is absolutely impeccable but also just the mannerisms, the indirect evil that’s behind everything he says, does and plans. It’s a vicious character but marvellous
Real people are hard to find,but their out there all the same
Still remember going to see this film at cinema, and there were a couple of local do as you likeys in there.
I will say this…I am an American, but I’m a 20 year army veteran and I’ve been all over the world and I’ve heard every accent there is, and I’m not always too big a fan of brad Pitt’s acting…but that accent is seriously impressive.
