Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesWhen Kelsey Grammer's character first goes to see Tim Roth's character early on in the film, on the table in Roth's home is a decorative piece made to look like Seattle's Space Needle. Grammer's sitcom, "Frasier" takes place in Seattle and the opening credits of the show display an outline of the Space Needle and other buildings.
- PatzerWhen Walter is throwing cards in Three Card Monte, he has three cards from a blue deck of Bicycle cards. However, the queen of hearts he shows the spectators does not have the same face or design one would find in a Bicycle deck.
- Zitate
Detective Brunner: Like I said we're all chasin somethin. More money. More love. What we're really looking for is more life. But sometimes you go looking for more, and you wind up with less. It's a beautiful world. We ought to be satisfied. But the truth is... we all want more. Some take a chance for the rush of winning. Some for love. But you can't have your dream without laying something on the line. The key is not to risk what you can't afford to lose. You might think you're different. But someday... you're gonna want more too. The question is... What are you willing to lay on the line?

Although part of the film's plot is taken directly from the James Caan film, The Gambler, it is still effective in most other areas. However, most of the film's outcomes are predictable, with one exception that I thought was a very nice twist. I will not reveal the twist, but it is truly unexpected.
The addictions are authentic, but some of the characterizations were a bit over the top. Davito's character did not seem realistic to me, but the writer/housewife character was well done. The film is completely stolen by TIm Roth, who creates such a gloriously hateful character. The movie is worth viewing just for his performance.
