Revolver

2005 · 111 min

A dense, mind-bending crime puzzle that keeps you off balance, more interested in philosophical games than in the shootouts.

Directed by: Guy Ritchie
Genres: Drama, Thriller, Crime
Starring: Jason Statham, Ray Liotta, Vincent Pastore

Tagline: Your mind will not accept a game this big.
Overview: Hotshot gambler Jake Green is long on bravado and seriously short of common sense. Rarely is he allowed in any casino because he's a bona fide winner and, in fact, has taken so much money over the years that he's the sole client of his accountant elder brother, Billy. Invited to a private game, Jake is in fear of losing his life.
