Anyone else seen this, the Guy Ritchie one. Got it on DVD last night, was truly disappointed. Well over-complicated, did'nt have a clue what was happening all the way through. Switched it off before the end. Anyone else not understand what happened or just me?

Same here
Went with a lass to see it & it was the worst idea ever. Neither of us liked it or really understood it.
Waste of time

its a brillaint film - on similar lines to fight club, you have to watch it a few times to understand it and the ending, genius - though maybe that went over peoples heads! 
Could have been a bit better in places, but does make you think afterwards! Wouldnt say it was the best film ive seen, but certainly up there with the rest of richies films

na it was really shit mate, check out most reviews of it by the critics even they say it sucked and they usually like films that you have to really think about.
tbh i wouldnt want to whatch the film over and over to find out its meaning as it was really shit.
on the other hand FIght club was a work of art, and not shit like revolver

 reviews are pointless, surely its viewers opinions on whether a film is good or not? Eitherway, look at Final Destination 3, lots of reviews said it was a pretty good film - was it fuck! Worse films ive seen for ages!
And similarly its like Scareface....i just cant understand how its a cult film, far from brilliant!
Watch it again and you'll think differently....seen it a few times and it you will realise its not bad of a film!

This is what I hate about this film. People say 'You didn't like it because you didn't understand it'. These same people think they were super geniuses for understanding it and as a result think the twist is awesome.
The Twist was obvious from the start and predictable - FIGHT CLUB RIPOFF.
This was one of the main reasons it was shit! It was like it was trying to fool the audience and be all clever, yet I was sitting there just thinking 'I know your the same person, fightclub did this so much better'.

There's films such as lock stock, fight club, 6th sense etc that have twists in that are good, this was shite not even any good violence and was over complicated haven't got the energy to watch it again

I thought it was just me but i also think Scarface is nothing to rave about. Saw Revolver the other day, way over complicated. 5/10 from me.
