Movie Review : Revolver
This movie rocks! The story line is absolutely brilliant and as the movie starts and you hear the narration you immediately feel the movie to be from Guy and that this will be a really good movie.
Its a bit awkward to see Jason with long hair and a beard and I did not even recognize him at first with my mind trying to grasp the visual representation of Jason with all that hair. I think this in itself was part of this whole story, so as we don't immediately input into our minds the preconceived notion that Jason is all action because this movie does not have him do any notable action scenes, mostly running and dodging though.
Ray Liotta as expected is at the top of his game for this one, his on screen personality melded so well with his character that I could not think of anybody else who would be a good fit, it was great to have him on-board for this movie.
As the movie progresses and as the plot thickens, you would think that story would try to hold-off in spilling any info on the mystery, but Guy and this story does not even try to, I think the main point is not to have a big bang at the end with the people having an intense experience while watching the entire movie waiting for the revelation at the end. I think the point is to have a good movie, enjoy the action, the drama the interaction, a bit of mystery enough to have your mind turn and bang, that's it!
Best to watch over the weekend with a clear mind and a bit of junk food on the side.
