Guy Ritchie's new movie flops at the US box office

Guy Ritchie's new movie has flopped at the US box office, according to reports.

Crime thriller Revolver - which was released in the UK in 2005 - was re-edited before it hit screens in America earlier this month.

But so far it has failed to make an impact, taking just over $75,000 USD in its first 12 days on release.

Celebrity columnist Roger Friedman wrote: "It's the same amount of money Madonna spends on, let's say, mascara. "Revolver was re-edited for American release but couldn't find a major distributor.

"Alas, Revolver is a terrible film in its new state.

"It was roundly panned by every reviewer who had a chance to see it.

"Madonna and Ritchie attended the mostly ignored mini-premiere here in New York, but that didn't help, either. Revolver died on the vine."

He added: "Guy Ritchie may be a lovely person, for all I know, but a great director he is not. Still, thanks to Madonna's efforts, he persists in getting work."

Revolver was given a limited release in the US.

Ritchie's next film is set to be heist movie RocknRolla - set in London with Russian mobsters. Jeremy Piven, Gerard Butler and Ludacris will star.
