Reindeer Games 4K 2000

According to Ben Affleck's statement from another movie, first an actor needs to star in a box office movie (apparently 'Armageddon' was meant), then an auteur movie ('Shakespeare in Love'), then he needs to participate in a movie of friends to whom he owes a favor ('Dogma'). When asked 'What to attribute 'Gambling' to', Affleck's character replies, 'It's a low blow'. Apparently in the above concept this film was not included, or it was just a joke. Because 'Gambling' is not a bad movie.

Ben Affleck in it, of course, not all his potential revealed, played a little restrained. Obviously, in his opinion, everyone who comes out of prison, deprived of some of the emotions. Well, his right, especially since there is nothing to reproach him with. His hero Rudy had the idea to visit the girl with whom his former cellmate corresponded, so that, so to speak, she was not very sad. But it was Rudy himself who had to be sad, because Ashley turned out to be a member of his brother's gang, preparing to rob a casino on an Indian reservation (there are no state laws prohibiting gambling there).

Confused Rudy, who is also threatened, begins to pretend that he is a master at robberies - meticulously studying blueprints and schemes, discussing details. However, to rob a casino - a task is not so simple, even if he was a real criminal. In addition, the gang is not all right with the loyalty of individual employees, and the true customer of the robbery will appear only in the very end, from which the plot turns snake and make you scratch the back of your head. Well, and as always in a criminal picture, the viewer is waiting for explosions, shooting and mate-speech. With few exceptions, everything is in place.

Except for Affleck, who played reliably, in the movie you can admire Charlize Terron (as a villain she looks more attractive, besides negative roles she rarely falls out - there is a reason to appreciate this unique manifestation), Gary Sinise (his face in 'Gambling' is very to the point - he even has a cute smile does not get). Well, Dennis Farina and Danny Trejo also contributed a part of themselves to the movie, the first just added another role in a crime movie, the second took a break from the vampire image from 'From Dusk Till Dawn', but then returned to it.

Taking into account all the possible options, the movie was not a failure, although not without flaws. The main character is not a bad person, so you are sincerely worried about his fate. Although it is quite difficult to understand whether it is a thriller, drama or action movie, because 'Gambling' has a little bit of everything. And an hour and forty minutes of time do not make the movie especially dragging. View once this tape can be everyone, although children under 17 years old is recommended to gather at the screen and parents too.
