Synopsis

Gambler Jake Green (Statham) did seven years of solitary thanks to his dealings with short-fused gangster Dorothy Macha (Liotta). Now he’s out and wants payback. Just as well his cell happened to be situated between a pair of mysterious criminal superbrains – one a chess master, the other a master conman – who shared all their wisdom with him…

Critics' reviews

"Who is this director, and what has he done with Guy Ritchie? (...) a film whose DVD version could plausibly be filed under 'action,' 'mystery,' 'religion' and 'self-help'"

Matt Zoller Seitz: The New York Times
"It seems designed to punish the audience for buying tickets (...) Rating: ½★ (out of 4)"

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
"Definitely deserves points for trying to be something thought-provoking and different, but it doesn't really stand up to analysis and it comes off as a pretentious mess"

William Arnold: Seattle Post-Intelligencer
"A bonkers piece of genre cinema gold, an avant-garde film noir boiling with electric filmmaking, an ahead-of-its-time gem. And, of course, everyone hated it."

Gregory Lawrence: Collider
"To be honest, I barely understood the plot (...) Where are the laughs (by God, it needs them)? Where are the ideas?"

David Fear: Time Out
"Not the disaster described in the British press but unlikely to restore Ritchie's luster."

Sid Smith: Chicago Tribune
"A cold, cerebral exercise in existential mannerisms that one watches with increasing dismay"

Kirk Honeycutt: The Hollywood Reporter
"After Revolver, Swept Away now looks like Citizen Kane (...) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"

Peter Bradshaw: The Guardian
