Director Guy Ritchie (SNATCH, LOCK STOCK & TWO SMOKING BARRELS) brings you this dark, psychological thriller featuring an all-star cast of gangster movie icons including Jason Statham (SNATCH, THE TRANSPORTER), Ray Liotta (GOODFELLAS), Vincent Pastore (THE SOPRANOS) and Outkast's André Benjamin (FOUR BROTHERS).
A sleek and edgy film about mastering the rules of the game, REVOLVER is populated with the same breed of fast-talking, sharp-suited criminals as in LOCK STOCK AND SNATCH, but with a psychological twist that your mind may not be able to handle. Just out of prison, Jake Green (Statham) is a hotshot gambler, but he's rarely allowed to play in any casino because he always wins.
When Jake is invited to a private game with Macha (Liotta), a crime boss and local casino owner, he is expected to lose. But Jake isn't afraid of Macha, and not only beats him in a quick game of chance, but takes every possible opportunity to insult the man. Jake leaves 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 loan sharks, Avi and Zack, who are out to take Macha down.
