Guy Ritchie's Revolver?

[Dark Donnie]

Very underrated, needs to take on more roles like Narc!

 

[Carmine Falcone]

yeah, he was so amazing in Narc. In Goodfellas and Blow he was amazing to. What an actor.

He's at his best in Narc! He is real good in Copland as well!

 

[Erundur]

speaking of Liotta, Narc is about to start on AMC

 

[Dark Donnie]

So did anyone see it? I've read some reviews that said it was awful, and some that said it was good. Both said you leave confused!

 

[Carmine Falcone]

nah, I have to wait till November.

The critics are burning Revolver down. But on IMDB are some positive comments.

I saw the positive stuff at IMDB as well, where actually was it released?

Damn this movie is getting bad reviews !


Here's what JoBlo festivalee Scott Weinberg had to say about it on http://www.joblo.com/index.php?id=8586 :

"...
But even worse than TIDELAND is the astonishingly indulgent and aggressively non-sensical REVOLVER, which comes from the formerly-reliable and now-desperate Guy Ritchie. This one stars Jason Statham and Ray Liotta as mega-rich con-artist nemeses who try to outwit each other by using a screenplay that's entirely witless. Virtually endless and almost migraine-inducing, REVOLVER lacks everything that made SNATCH and LOCK, STOCK... so damn fun. There's no energy, no excitement, virtually no style, and absolutely no point. And after speaking with numerous moviegoers and film critics, it seems I'm far from the only one who has this particular opinion. A massive chore it was, and one that inspired dozens of walk-outs at the screening I attended."

Joblo sucks, I despise that disgusting, immature ****. Ugh. And that is not based on what you just posted Scissorhands.

And I know the movie is getting flamed. I will see the movie and develop my own opinion.

 

[ShaneHelms]

Hey Carm, Drop me a line when you get on messenger, and from what i have seen, i dont think im going to be disapointed in Revolver.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

okay

 

[Carmine Falcone]

It looks like they won't release Revolver in Holland anymore because it didn't do well and it got little positive reviews.

That sucks ****ing donkey dick.

 

[black_dust]

thats because the movie sucked hard! worst film i have seen this year (for story) the direction was great

 

[Carmine Falcone]

That is your opinion.

 

[Dark Donnie]

Is it being released in the US or what? I haven't heard anything about it!

 

[Carmine Falcone]

in Januari 2006 I believe.

I rented this flick yesterday.

It's definatelt not in the same league as Lock Stock or Snatch. HOwever i do like the movie . It has some very interesting twist and turns and overall i think it's a far more dramatic mature movie from Guy Ritchie as opposed to the more comedy driven Lock Stock and Snatch.

I always thought that this movie was named after a gun ( in the veign of Ritchie's previous flicks). Not that ir actuallt means Revolving.

Also one question.

Spoiler :
The whole Sam Gold thing. Is it that Jason Statham is Sam Gold , or the three ( Andre Benjamin , that fat dude from Sopranos and Jason Statham) are Sam Gold , or that Sam Gold is really a the enemy within ( as shown by Statham when he wins over his bad inner self and at the same time "releases "the weaker side inner side of Dorothy Macha when Ray Liotta is pointing the gun at Statham and saying "Fear Me ".

Spoiler End :


Overall i'd give it a 6.5/10. An okay flick , but by no means great.

Sam Gold is a symbol for Greed. ''He is behind all the pain there ever was.'' Jake Green defeats him in the elevator, he is now free from Greed. Macha shoots himself in the head because he thinks Green is Gold and that he has been ****ing with him from the start. ''He can't kill a dead man.''

I personally love the movie.

SO what . Macha thinks that Jake Green/Sam Gold is just a figment of his imagination ?
I still don't understand the "He can't kill a dead man " thing

 

[Balian]

I personally found this movie great, sure it takes some figuring out but it was good enough to make me buy the special edition DVD. And this comes from a Guy Ritchie fan, excluding Swept Away of course.

[BLACKOUT]The way I see it, is that Macha thinks that Jake Green is Sam Gold. But Macha doesn't know that Gold actually is greed. He thinks Gold is a powerful crime boss. And he thinks Jake Green is actually Sam Gold. If he shoots himself, Green can't kill him. [/BLACKOUT]
