A whole bunch of thieves and shady characters are trying to get their hands on a huge diamond.

This was pretty darn good. It's by the same guy who made Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, and like that movie, it's amusing but the accents are REALLY thick...not just British, but a whole bewildering variety of classes and education, slang, and even one guy (played by Brad Pitt) who is so incomprehensible that most of what he says has to be translated for the other characters, very funny.

A mile-a-minute plot, all the dominoes are stacked up by the middle of the movie and watching them fall is great fun. Many plot twists, lots of blood and body parts flying everywhere, loads of quirky characters, and a good, satisfying ending. If you like caper/heist flicks, or are just in the mood for some serious British accents, this is a good pick.
