The first rule about Revolver is, don't talk about Revolver.
Wait wrong film.
I hired this film on DVD expecting another lock-stock, but it ended up being a decent but flawed blend of snatch with fight club. As expected from this crew, the acting and technical areas were good but not amazing. Where films like this live or die is on the storyline and its twists/resolution.
These I would summarize as the film equivalent of a trip to a modern art gallery. Ie. some interesting pieces, but a lot of self indulgent pretentious tosh with no point but to convey a simple concept in an over complex and ultimately unsatisfying way.
If you generally 'get' complex plots then it's worth a watch, but don't expect a masterpiece.
7/10
