Short and Simple Review
Molly's Game tells the story of underground exclusive high stakes power club owner named Molly Bloom. The story is extremely interesting and the film captures the interest of the viewer easily. The narration aspect of the film is great and the way it was laid out is perfect. The court room scenes, the poker games, and the ending are all great.
The acting is amazing Jessica Chastain and Idris Elda are spectacular. They both command the screen and both give amazing performances. Kevin Costner also performs very well. All the other actors in the film all perform well.
The pacing gets a little slow but it is still a very entertaining film. The runtime is overlong though.
