luckyluke 2 Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Whatever you do, do not go and see this. There isn't even the slightest hint of plot. I feel violated. That bastard Ritchie has played a trick on me by fooling me into paying to see this monsterous piece of shit. The cheeky cunt does not deserve to make money from this; I beg of you, do not make the same mistake I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 It's been getting a right slagging from everyone. I saw an ITV jizzfest about it on Friday night which was basically a 30 minute promotional video for it with some over excited presenter claiming it was the best film you'd ever see. Always know when a film is going to be shite when they go out of their way to promote it in this way. I hear Guy Richie and Madonna got booed coming up the red carpet because they wouldn't sign an autographs or stop for photos. When they arrived on this programme they edited the sound to cheers and the presenter interviews them straight after and says 'you got a fantastic reception'. Fuck me gently.

Ketsbaia 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 All of Guy Ritchie's films are lost on me. I liked Lock Stock but everything else leaves me cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 36797 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 I thought Lock Stock was decent, but I thought Snatch was utter crap. I haven't seen Swept Away and I won't be bothering with Revolver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catmag 336 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 I've not seen any of his films including Lock, Stock, but I've read reviews of this and they've all slated it. He was on Film 2005 with Jonathan Ross last week and Ross was definitely doing some arse-licking and talking it up but he did say it was "complex" Ritchie replied that the plot was only complex if you were a bit thick Doesn't he also manage to get references to Kabbalah in there too? Not under the thumb at all then eh.....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had a powerful effect on adolescent lads then. Wouldn't watch it again now mind. I forgot about Evita where she was quite good, although obviously eclipsed by Jimmy Nail!

Guest Sima Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Anyone hear his interview on Radio 5 last week. It was the most pretentious drivel I have ever heard in my life. Download Mark Kermode's podcast to hear his review of Revolver as well. I think it was the Guardian that said "Revolver makes Swept Away look like Citizen Kane". Praise indeed.
