My top from best to worst:
Rock N Rolla
Snatch
Lock, Stock
Sherlock Holmes 1
Sherlock Holmes 2
Revolver
I've never seen Swept Away, but that nearly killed his career, which is why Revolver is so muddled. He was rusty at that point. -

I think Swept Away should be number one. Madonna is my favorite singer of all time and the movie was amazing and had a heartbreaking storyline. Just because others hate Madonna doesn't mean everyone does. I love her and this movie is one of her best out there.

I remember reading he was originally trying to make Revolver heavy with Kaballah ideas but the studio balked. Swept Away started out OK, then it just went haywire.

I think the Holmes movies are his best by a wide margin.

I'm one of those people who really enjoyed Revolver. In fact I liked it far better than Rock N Rolla, Snatch, Lock Stock, and the two Sherlock Holmes movies......so.....yeah....I just like the overall message or Revolver.

I enjoy Revolver as well, and ENJOY it more than other films i'd rate higher than it, but I can admit it has its faults over the runtime.
It's a fun, interesting, complex film, but it's not necessarily a GOOD one.Nate Boss

I love Rock N Rolla, that movie cracks me up, that part in the train yard with Gerald Butler is hillarious. Snatch would have to be my second favorite, followed by Lock Stock. I could care less about the Sherlock movies, not enough detective stuff in those. I still haven't seen Revolver

For now, worst to first (edit: lol, list is backwards);
RocknRolla
Lock Stock
Snatch
Sherlock1
Will probably never watch Swept Away, still have yet to see Revolver and Sherlock 2--Revolver's up next in my rental queue but according to Netflix, they won't have Sherlock 2 in until August. Recently rented RocknRolla... was very pleasantly surprised. I think it might be my fav Guy flick. It's been a while since I've seen Snatch and Lock Stock, planning to rewatch those two again pretty soon.Usul, we have wormsign the likes of which even God has never seen.
We're breeding a race of moral midgets.
