DVD Description
Gambler and conman Jake Green (Jason Statham) always ran with a bad crowd and it cost him seven years of his life when he took the rap for mean Dorothy Macha (Ray Liotta) and wound up in jail. After his release, Jake becomes unbeatable at the tables using a formula for the ultimate con that he learned from two mysterious fellow prisoners. Now he is ready to take his revenge. Macha is plotting to eliminate his ruthless rival, Lord John, and has staked his credibility on a huge drug deal with the all-powerful Sam Gold. Jake visits Macha at his casino and humiliates him publicly in a game of chance. Macha fearing more of the same medicine sends his goons to "take care of" Jake. His life is saved by enigmatic Zach (Vincent Pastore) who, with his equally inscrutable partner Avi (André Benjamin), offers Jake protection. Against his better judgment, Jake accepts. He soon finds himself playing the very last game he wants to be playing, and there is danger at every turn. But the biggest danger of all comes from a totally unexpected source…

Customer Reviews

Talentless
Quite simply the worst piece of pseudo intellectual, directionless, celluloid effluent ever created. 110 Minutes of your life wasted. YOU have been warned!!!!!!!!!! 5 minutes after viewing the full abortion I have taken the offending DVD out into the garden, urinated on it and tossed it into the dustbin - not even worth the effort of re-cycling.

I love film, and I do love a guilty pleasure or two - but there is a distinct difference between rubbish and effluent.

What?
Jason Statham's quite good in this, Guy Ritchie's awful fourth about, um, the human ego?? What the hell is it about? Even if I did understand it, it would still be rubbish, despite a great cast and every single shot looking real pretty. I think the reason most people didn't "get it" (as the IMDB forumers hasten to accuse) is because Ritchie has no clue what he's blathering on about, taking some of the most well known studies in the human psyche and shoehorning them into the non-plot of this pretentious failure of a film.

Surprisingly bad
This has some great sequences, but added together it makes a really dull film! I have no idea how this went so wrong. One for fans of train wrecks.
