Ouch!

Mr. Madonna's Movie Takes In Just $75,000

It’s the same amount of money Madonna spends on, let’s say, mascara.

Guy Ritchie's latest movie — he’s her husband — has taken in $75,000 at the box office after 10 days or so in release.

"Revolver," which was a flop in the U.K. in 2005, grossing $6.5 million there, was re-edited for American release but couldn’t find a major distributor. It went out with IDP, a company that, nevertheless, is very adept at releasing good indie films such as "The Squid and the Whale" and "Raising Victor Vargas."

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.
