About the Film

Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is a 1998 British crime comedy directed by Guy Ritchie in his feature debut. Guy Ritchie's directorial style — fast editing, freeze-frame character introductions, interconnected storylines that converge in violent chaos, and dialogue delivered in thick British slang — was immediately distinctive and influential. The film launched both Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham as international talents and spawned a wave of British gangster comedies.

Lock, Stock earned $28 million worldwide on a $1.35 million budget.
