Watchable, but unaffecting.

Rating: 4/10 (14 August 2018)

Molly's Game has interesting content and a good cast who act well in it, but the story's thin and told in a way that's numbing.
The re-telling narration almost never stops, so there isn't room to think about things. Michael Cera's character Player X is suppose to be the best player, but they show this by saying someone's laying down the nuts to him because he's talking, that doesn't make him good, that just makes that player bad. Molly as a main character's very distant and not easy to connect with, but the film held my interest.
