After 2002's terrible Swept Away and now Revolver, Ritchie has managed to make, back to back, two of the worst films any one director can lay claim to.

Reviews for Revolver
The prospect of Ritchie going back to the gangster genre a third time is unappetizing, but it has nothing on his feeble attempt to reinvent it.

Revolver, the latest Guy Ritchie shoot-em-up, is a joke. You laugh with it but mostly at it.

This 2005 feature offered me my first taste of Guy Ritchie's macho-centric artiness, and I hope it's my last.

Top CriticA frothing mad film that thrashes against its very sprocket holes in an attempt to bash its brains out against the projector. It seems designed to punish the audience for buying tickets.
12/07/07
Top CriticNot the disaster described in the British press but unlikely to restore Ritchie’s luster.
12/17/07
An unwieldy, short-circuiting film, packing "more tricks than a clown's pocket" yet imbued with brute spiritual force
08/27/09
It's not worth the bother.
04/03/08
It’s long been said that films have the power to inspire violence in the viewing public. Revolver is one such movie -- a piece of work guaranteed to send you into a violent frenzy.
09/24/05
This is the perfect movie for those who like to crack things open and dig around the innards, with Ritchie encouraging interpretation and curiosity with each new scene.
01/19/06
Any semblance of a cohesive narrative arc is junked early on, and those who can sit through Revolver and claim to have "followed it completely" is a bald-faced liar.
09/10/05
This may not be the single dumbest movie of the year but, to paraphrase Tommy Lee Jones in No Country For Old Men (a film as good as this one is bad), it will do until the dumbest one finally arrives.
12/06/07
A confusing, frustrating and failed attempt to intellectualise the Lock, Stock formula. Anyone know what this movie's about? Answers on a postcard, please.
09/26/05
Ritchie may still be working within his beloved cockney gangster milieu, but he does to it something akin to what Alessandro Jodorowsky did to the Western with El Topo, or to the slasher flick with Santa Sangre.
08/06/07
Even the legion of Ritchie fans hooked on the kineticism and casual violence of Snatch will surely turn on the man after seeing Revolver. He has added an insufferable pretense to his usual smugness.
12/07/07
Jesus, this is a stupid movie.
01/06/09
Revolver bogs down badly less than halfway through in a repetitious loop of navel-gazing.
12/07/07
I can't remember another time in my film-watching career where I sincerely hated a movie ... one of the worst films ever made
01/26/06
Tedious, humourless, pretentious and nasty.
