Guy Richies new project. I think it's funny how he promised he would never make a violent film ever again after the birth of his child.

Plot Summary for Revolver

Jake Green is a hotshot gambler, long on audacity and short on common sense. He's rarely allowed to play in any casino because he is a winner. Jake has taken in so much money over the years, he is the only client of his accountant and older brother Billy. One night, Jake, Billy and their other brother Joe are invited to sit in on a private game, where Jake is expected to lose to Dorothy Macha, a crime boss and local casino owner who can't play for squat, but always wins because people are too scared to lose to him. Jake isn't afraid of Macha, and not only beats Dorothy in a quick game of chance, but takes every possible opportunity to insult the man. Jake and his brothers leave the game, and Macha puts out the order for a hit on Jake, who ends up working for and being protected by a pair of brothers, Avi and Zack, who are out to take Macha down.

Though delayed due to Ritchie's interest in making the film Six Shooters.

Well, that trailer makes it look very cool and stylish, but that plot description kotte posted make it sound like its not very imaginable. Lock Stock was great, but Snatch is way overrated. A movie assholes dig for sure. I'll keep an eye on this, that trailer has some cool parts.
Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

Play that trailer about a hundred times and you've pretty much got a Guy Ritchie movie right there... pointless, shiny, shit.

as little as i care for guy ritchie or this film, i thought that was a pretty neat trailer. and i must say the plot summary has me less reluctant to see it, going for a more straight forward plot rather than the pulp fiction every character after the same thing coming across/killing one another in the process thing hes usually got going. but why would do they have a machine gun on the poster for a movie called Revolver?

sorry layer cake.  good luck with being 'mature, cause the real  guy ritchie is coming atcha!  but actually i will definitely see this (unless the reviews are worse than swept away).
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

Is that a machine gun?

Sorry, I'm not very good with guns.
We often went to the cinema, the screen would light up and we would tremble, but also, increasingly often, Madeleine and I were disappointed. The images had dated, they jittered, and Marilyn Monroe had gotten terribly old. We were sad, this wasn't the film we had dreamed of, this wasn't the total film that we all carried around inside us, this film that we would have wanted to make, or, more secretly, no doubt, that we would have wanted to live.
