A treat to follow the wonderful Jessica Chastain though the seedy world of high stakes Poker

Rating: 7/10 (5 January 2018)

The central character is smart and beautiful and who better to play such a person than Jessica Chastain. She is stunning and keeps your attention throughout. There's a lot of dialog and some times the dialog could have been shortened to make the speeches and crucial dialog more meaningful when they take place. There is such a thing as too many words in a movie.
It's an interesting if not very appealing look at the kind of horrid people in high stakes poker. I guess I don't understand poker because all I can think is what a waste of time and money! It kind of reminded me of Maylfower Madam.
Worth a watch. Makes you want to find out more about the real inspirations behind the movie.
