Rotten
The actors hit the jackpot, but only in terms of their paychecks. The audience gets a tension-free, tight-assed, Casino ripoff that leaves them thoroughly fleeced.

The mannered speech is fun, the players are charismatic, and director Brad Furman maintains an agreeably brisk pace.
Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader
Rotten
It looks like everybody's lying, and that's only because the acting is pretty bad.
Wesley Morris, Grantland
Rotten
The movie mostly wants to look timely and seem topical. Instead, it feels irrelevant.
Rafer Guzman, Newsday
Rotten
Various subplots are given short shrift and the whole thing feels more like a Cliff's Notes version of a longer piece than an actual finished motion picture.
