Weaving an intriguing, captivating story with deep thoughts hid underneath the surface, "Revolver" uniquely reveals a crime-ridden plot that stays with a viewer long after the movie is set on the shelf. Action figure Jason Statham is never cooler while Andre' Benjamin, playing a deep thinking conman/chess master, is cool personified. Ray Liotta populates the bad guy just like he did in "GoodFellas;" one can't look away when he's on screen. Prepare to meet the nasty Lord John, then the gunman with a heart, Sorter, and of course there's French Paul doing Liotta's hard work like, "I hope you buried that shareholder . . . deep!" But the movie is stolen by an unseen character, the devil himself, "Mr. Gold," though we meet his wife . . . yes, the devil has a spouse! Wonder if that's why he stays agitated? Lily Walker is Ms. Devil's name; forever and forever, because of the superb English actress Francesca Annis, Walker's image will be the devil's work in my mind. The extras, like a featurette explaining the concept along with deleted scenes, are an incredible aid in digging through the smoke screens Ritchie throws up by not revealing just everything; that's part of the fun. Under known yet riveting, "Revolver" will shoot off the shelf back into play. Oh, by the way, Checkmate.
