So much of this is great, I’m not sure what’s missing but maybe some larger theme or deeper meaning would have made this stick the landing.
Fascinating, quietly exhilarating, heartbreaking. Probably the best exploration of gambling addiction ever put to film.
I think this is a real hidden treasure. You love the characters it’s a good buddy movie.
A great movie with awesome performances and really gives you an idea of the struggles of gambling addiction
A slightly melancholic and balanced look at both ambition and addiction.
Not everyone thing but a good movie with a interesting plot development none the less
Good road movie, and great portrayal of a gambling addict.
Great dialogue, sympathetic characters. A sobering tale, that should cause some introspection.
This is an interesting film with great performances by both leads. Give it a watch!
I’ve got a soft spot for gambling movies, but it’s a wonderful, unpredictable flick
