DAY 81: November 20th, 2008.

Revolver



Revolver...simply put is a bad film.

The film faults mostly from the inane script that is hard to follow. It tries it hardest to be interesting and engage the viewer, but all it ends up doing is confuses and angers the viewer. The main problem is that is has no idea what it is about and comes off as some kid who made a film that is pretentious and dumb.

For reasons unknown, this "crime" film has a twist, an unoriginal, unneeded, inane twist that doesn't flow with the rest of the flick. Now, if the film decided to play it straight, instead of trying to mess around with the viewers mind, it could have been decent. I had more interest in the game of chess that is played then what the movie is actually about.

Skip this movie because the cast is horrible and the direction is appalling and you will kick yourself for wasting your time with it. Ray Liotta is alright, but cannot save the train-wreck that is Revolver.
