I always wondered what it would feel like if Guy Ritchie would scream "LOOK AT HOW COOL AND SMART I AM! LOOK, DAMN YOU!" at me for 100 minutes. Now I know.

This movie can be summed up in five words: What the fuck just happened? Now, sometimes that can be a good thing, ala The Usual Suspects, unfortunately this isn't the case with Revolver. You can feel the pretentiousness oozing off the screen. There are many movies that have layers, and deeper meaning, but respect the audience and are good exercises in that type of storytelling, and as much as I wanted this to be one of them, it was not.

Revolver is a very complex film, and it is Guy Ritchie's true masterpiece. It is not Snatch, so if that is what you're anticipating, you may well be disappointed. You shouldn't be because Revolver spins circles around Snatch, in a good way. This film is mature and it requires your undivided attention. Attention not just focused upon the dazzling cinematography or the brilliance of the performances, but your focus must stay with the dialogue. Revolver is a psychological action thriller...

A hustler just out of prison looks to get revenge on the guy who put him there, setting a bunch of bullshit in motion. Ritchie chooses to saddle this flick with unbelievably stupid and repetitive dialog about cons, reality, chess, the ego and any other pretentious nonsense that pops into his addled mind. The story is a circular mess featuring some really awful acting, a bit of decent action, and not much else. Not the worst Jason Statham movie I've seen, but only because Uwe Boll exists.

Note to Guy Ritchie: stop trying so hard. And don't try to make a 'dramatic' film starring Jason Statham. It will never work. Never!

I'm a little bit torn on this film. While I somewhat enjoyed the over-the-top visual style and there are several memorable scenes, the movie is just lacking in...coherence? For every twist that threw me for a loop in the good way, there were two that made next to no sense. As per usual with Statham, he's not a bad actor, he's just in shit films. This one wasn't the total disaster I'd anticipated, but it certainly wasn't good either.

Oh man what a mess. How can you repeat the same stupid phrases over and over? It takes itself so seriously that you can't even laugh at it. You can see the ending coming about 20 minutes in and the only suspense is whether it will ever make any sense. Andre 3000 was cool though.

it sure is complex and multi layered, although you can't shake the feeling that there's a lack coherence in the story (or in other words, wtf happened??) but the photography, and the editing are excellent. the scene where moonlight sonata is playing on the background is pure art. Guy Ritchie has tried to move beyond cool gangster movies, and to a level he has succeeded.

Perhaps if someone explained to me what on earth was going on I could give this a higher mark, it just tries to be unnecassarily intelligent and only succeeds in coming across as pretencious and confusing.

Suffers from incoherence and inconsistently jumbled and inarticulate features within its mangled plotline. Staham still has his usual enrapturement, but alll he does here is run and gun the entire film in a very yawn-inducing procedure. The editing however is prime Ritchie, which is to say excellent. My anticipations and premonitions for a failure were overrided only by triviality and minor paltriness, which I guess is good. Still a letdown from Ritchie. I expect better in the future. Pitiful.

Like most films of its type it attempts to be so grand, so surprising, and so unpredictable; that it is the most clique, normal, boring, and predictable thing you could ever see.

"There is something about yourself that you don't know. until it's too late to do anything about it. It's the only reason you get up in the morning. The only reason you suffer the shitty boss, the blood, the sweat and the tears. This is because you want people to know how good, attractive, generous, funny, wild and clever you really are. Fear or revere me, but please, think I'm special. We share an addiction. We're approval junkies" (I had to shorten this monlogue which i love to insert it here)

If you're looking for a movie to just pass time and entertain yourself with no exhaustion, then that movie isn't for ya, That movie has the potential to change the way you think forever, it took me 3 times to decipher the code, yeah and the third time i had a pen and a paper to write the quote and the ideas of the movie, it's a brilliant movie it's just not ordinary that' why it's very underrated.

Some of the stupidest shit you'll ever see in a major motion picture. Too desperate and embarrassing to be funny though.
