6/10
Okay but WAY overrated...
15 November 1999
"Lock, Stock..." has some interesting scenes and good camerawork, and may be a great introduction to the British underclass. However, it's difficult to understand, very profane, and unfortunately, derivative. These types of hijinks have been filmed before ("The Italian Job" and "Get Carter" respectively do the English caper and brutal crime things better), and they're never believable anyway. The film will hold your attention, but isn't as amusing or clever as the average "Monty Python" episode.

A "6." Sensitive viewers should note that the film is very violent and profane.
