I love monster movies. Even if the special effects aren’t the greatest and the plot is weak, the fact I can see some giant monster destroying a city is usually enough to make up for it.

Im was a huge fan of Lock Stock and Two Smokin barrels and when Snatch was released I was unsure of what to expect.
