"Two Smoking Guns" is a British black comedy film directed and written by Guy Ritchie in 1998. Director Guy Ritchie won international acclaim for this film, and the actors Pooh Jones (former Welsh international football player) and Jason Statham also opened up their popularity. The film tells the story of London street gangster Ed and his friends participating in a gang of gambling but owing huge sums of money, planning to rob a group of drug dealers. On the same day, the drug dealers robbed the drug supplier, accidents occurred frequently, and finally turned into a completely unpredictable farce. .
For typical black humor movies, the director uses a domino-style narrative method to raise the force of storytelling by more than one level! The story starts with a gambling game, four small gangsters are set up and owed 500,000 pounds in gambling debts. In order to repay the money within a week, the four decided to take the risk. They paid attention to the neighbors, but they didn't expect that the neighbors' money was actually used to trade drugs with the gang, and the four of them realized that they were in serious trouble.
There are many story lines and characters in the movie, but the director always connects them with guns, money and drugs. These three things happen to be the title of the film. British director Gerich’s debut work, this advanced storytelling mode makes the whole movie seem to be chain-linked, and there is no peeing throughout the whole process.
This is a very slow story. At the beginning, I didn't understand at all where it was worth such a high score, and then I gradually understood it! Can't help but yell, too! it is good! Look!

    At the beginning, a bunch of people who looked the same were always dangling in front of them, and it was difficult to even identify who was who, let alone see who was the protagonist... But in the end they almost died, and the rest should be the protagonist~ ending It's freezing...

    Even more look forward to Ning Hao, Gai Liqi wins in elegance and style, as well as the nihility and struggle on the theme, and Ning Hao's humor is not inferior, and his Chinese characteristics are especially better than Gairich, and the foreshadowing is more ingenious and concise.

Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels quotes

  • Gary: So who's the gov'? Who we doing this for?

    Barry the Baptist: You're doing it for me, that's all you need to know. You know because you need to know.

    Gary: I see. One of them "on a need to know basis" things is it. Like one of them James Bond films.

    Barry the Baptist: Careful. Remember who's giving you this job.

  • Tom: Listen to this one then; you open a company called the Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club. You take an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, sell it a bit with, er... I dunno, "does what no other dildo can do until now", latest and greatest in sexual technology. Guaranteed results or money back, all that bollocks. These dills cost twenty-five each; a snip for all the pleasure they are going to give the recipients. They send a cheque to the company name, nothing offensive, er, Bobbie's Bits or something, for twenty-five. You put these in the bank for two weeks and let them clear. Now this is the clever bit. Then you send back the cheques for twenty-five pounds from the real company name, Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club, saying sorry, we couldn't get the supply from America, they have sold out. Now you see how many of the people cash those cheques; not a single soul, because who wants his bank manager to know he tickles arses when he is not paying in cheques!

    Bacon: So how long do you have to wait for a return?

    Tom: Probably no more than four weeks.

    Bacon: Well what good is that if we need it in six... no, five days?

    Tom: Well it was still a good idea.
