Pete Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I've just watched it and am totally confused. Anyone care to explain what I've just seen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I've got it here but haven't got round to watching it yet. Any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted August 12, 2006 Author Share Posted August 12, 2006 I tried to find some explanation on the web and the best quote I could find was "it's an intelligent film, too intelligent for the audience to understand". Not your typical Guy Ritchie romp. I enjoyed it, but you have to really concentrate. I'm still not entirely sure what it was all about. Watch it and we can carry on the discussion afterwards.

RedM Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I found it to be an average film but it did do my head in. I thought Donnie Darko was bad enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I thought Donnie Darko was bad enough. I loved that film. I hated DD. Didn't 'get it' at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted August 12, 2006 Author Share Posted August 12, 2006 I hated DD. Didn't 'get it' at all. It's nice to get a film that makes you think a bit though. I liked the way revolver ends with about 4 mins of blank screen and classical piano music giving you some reflection time to think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shilakadaddy Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I think the concept of revolver was similar to that of Fight Club - Thats the impression I got anyway... the whole split personality thing. I saw it a while ago so thats about as best as I can explain it Donnie Darko was awesome film too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I thought Revolver was a complete waste of time. Guy Richie just got pissed off because everyone was saying all he could do was brit gangster comedy and so he went out to prove everyone wrong with a more "intelligent" film. Unfortunatly i think it's just a mess of ideas that don't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I've got it here but haven't got round to watching it yet. Any good? I thought it was cack. But you might like it .. to each to their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shilakadaddy Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I hope you haven't just ruined the film for me? Never heard of a spoiler warning? FFS! Nah, I haven't given away the plot. Its not the same as Fight Club, I just thought it was vaguely reminiscent of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 You had me worried there for a while I hate it when people do that. Somebody spoilt The Sixth Sense for me by giving the story away before I'd seen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
