Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

blanchjoe Under the guise of a standard "shootem-up" action movie, even going to the point of hiring standard well trained action movie actors, this is instead, and in actuality, an exploration into the nature of the individuated-self sense, and the meaning of how we perceive.For those seeking entertainment, or a well directed action movie, you will be confused, frustrated, and disappointed. This is not a conventional film, and it is dealing with a wholly unconventional subject, one that the vast majority of viewers will not understand.The hero of this story must completely awaken from the dream of his conditional existence and the limited individuated egoic "self" cannot be accomplished by "one's-self".That which supports and maintains perception accomplishes that process, and the process requires the complete transcendence and dissolution of the egoic self, via absolute surrender of the process of attention away from the individuated self sense, onto that which support, sustains and is "not" the individuated self sense.In many ways this film is a Luc Besson / Guy Ritche modern Koan.Checkmate.

chickenpek Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham collaborate once again with a huge cast of mostly action bloke films. While this is absolutely still a bloke film this one is quite different from your average Ritchie film and I have to admit I find myself impressed with the acting range shown by the entire cast but a shout out to Statham who was a real performance surprise and absolutely to Ray Liotta who hit all of his marks perfectly.I hope more film makers see this film as a new benchmark for the two actors so they may be cast in a few more interesting rolls.I enjoyed it and hope you guys do as well when you get around to seeing it.

mutambutapu I'll give it a 9 because of all the ways possible to interpret and perceive the events and meanings in this movie. I do not know why but what I see in this movie is 2 self-educated genii exploiting entire mob gangs governed by morons and self-proclaimed leaders of the mob world. Jack Green in this story is just a pieces moved on real life chess board. It was quite clear that Avi and Zach are Jack's neighbors next door from solitary prison cells. They knew everything about him, stole everything he had when they escaped prison and did whatever they do to stay in a shadow and control environment without being notices. When Jack leaves prison, makes money and gets targeted by the owner the casino they magically appear and offer help. Somehow they now every step taken by the casino owner and gets few moves ahead of everyone. Intercepts assassination of Jack and then convinces him that he has got a disease so he loses common sense and stops thinking rationally. He gives them all of his money which are lent to a bunch of desperate people who think that they will be able to give the money back but obviously they can't. So they end up in Loan Shark pocket enslaving themselves. So Jack is now one their puppets, their assets. Later on these 2 genii carry on manipulation by creating the image of so called Mr Gold which becomes a real real big boss in the eyes of Macha. So Macha tries everything to satisfy this mysterious figure. He fears to turn down the mythical being so much that he decides to pay ridiculous money for his competition in exchange for white powdery stuff. Well, we all saw how well it went. And it would be naive to disregard mastermind power of these to criminals who know where when and how enemy is going to act in a certain situation. They are the ones behind everyone's misfortune including Mr Green's. The real big bosses are smoking cigars in a Jacuzzi when stupid gangsters chase the wrong guy. Literally, the whole story is an ingenious design of Mr black magic a.k.a. Avi and put into practice by the practical engineer Zach. If you do the math, Avi and Zach do not exist in the eyes of neither Macha, nor Lord John. All the blame is pushed onto Mr Green since he was scamming everyone before no one would expect anyone else to be involved. These 2 get the money for the powder and the powder itself. The gang war starts, assassination of Macha fails so they make Mr Green to hand in Lord John's powder to Macha himself. In this way Macha is certainly dead since the owners of Lord John will not forget that Macha stole their powder and brought a shame to clan. So Macha understood that is f*ked and blew his head off because bullet in his brain is much better than an upcoming bad fate from Asian mafia.You might try to see some Ego issues in MrGreen's personality but the only one who had an enormous Ego was Macha. Look at his palace, items at home, sick attention to perfection - he takes full body tan in a huge room, criticizes a professional sniper, really??? Anyway all of these mobsters think they are in control but the real control comes from 2 unnoticed puppeteers.

Krzysztof Bobik Ritchie's "Revolver" is like a brilliant among diamonds. Intelligent, philosophical and complex story with a twist, very classy and highly esthetic pictures, embellished with carefully selected and consistent throughout the entire movie tints of colors that contribute greatly to the amazing atmosphere of the motion picture. Importantly, it is not a typical gangsta movie, thus if you expect a continuation of "Snatch" you probably will be disappointed. "Revolver" is like a deep psychological analysis of origin of power and domination. It is full of game theory elements that could easily be extrapolated to the everyday life of all of us and is full of amazing characters (e.g. Lily Walker!!!! and Sorter, in addition to Mr. Green) that will stay with you for much longer after watching the movie. Honestly, I do not think the movie was understood by general public, and I suppose it is a major problem of the current audience nowadays. We all are looking too much for some easy fun, easy answers. The rating 6.5 seems to confirm the above.
