Another Revolver explanation

For the last month or so, I’ve been getting a lot of traffic and comments from people who have seen Guy Ritchie’s Revolver and are still looking for a “revolver explanation“.

So I’m on the verge of introducing a new category called … yep, you got it – Revolver Explanations. The new category will be dedicated to all kinds of second-guesses and wild speculations. All (3) of my Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham fans should be happy now.

On a second thought, maybe I should finally launch the Great Movies category and start reviewing some of my favorites. I’m split …

My review of Revolver

It seems that my review of Revolver, Guy Ritchie’s latest movie, is causing a stir.

Most critics seem to agree that Revolver is not on par with Ritchie’s previous crime flicks: Lock, stock… and Snatch. Yet, there’s a handful of fanatic Ritchie’s fans that troll forums and sites defending the movie.

Now, I’m not Ebert but I am entitled to my opinion anyway. My opinion is that there’s no Revolver explanation because there’s no Revolver mystery and (as some fans would claim). The con of all cons is the movie itself although I doubt Guy Ritchie intended it.
