Snatch (2000)

This is an okay British movie. During a high stakes robbery in an Orthodox Jewish district in Belgium, a precious 87-carat diamond is stolen by courier Frank Four Fingers (Benicio del Toro) for his American crime boss, Avi. Turkish (Jason Statham) is trying to grow his boxing business and hires Gorgeous George for a fight, but he is injured and so Mickey O'Neil (Brad Pitt) is brought in to replace him. Avi is worried that his courier is going to lose the diamond in a boxing bet and so he flies to London to protect the gem.

There are a lot of similarities with Guy Ritchie's previous film, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
