This movie is about lust: lust for money. Lust has it price as we all know and the movie is just another example in a long list of movies that gave us the same message. Actually, this also not the first movie about pulling off a casino hussle.
Stil, Even Though there's nothing new about it, this movie is fun to watch. The young actors are giving a fresh performance, the plot moves along nicely, and it all taking place along familiar Canadians views.
So we're not talking masterpiece here but certainly a respectable and enjoyable member of the genre.Better than a lot of American movies nowadays! - phildo
When I first tuned into this movie on the movie network, I didn't expect much because it is a Canadian film. But by the end of the movie, I had a different appreciation of what Canadian film makers can accomplish. This movie kept me interested throughout, and didn't need a huge budget to do so. The storyline is well written and the direction is top notch. The subtle humor and mature language was also well-placed. If you like cards, or casinos, or movies involving scamming money, this is the film for you. The fairly new cast does a great job. I liked the investor character of Orr, but I especially liked Katharine Isabelle as Elyse. She is a talented actress and beautiful to boot. If you love to play blackjack, gamble, or you're looking for a good 'ol Canadian-made film, this has got to be one of the best. This is a definite must-see.
