Some What Disappointing.
26 February 2022
The movie starts with the premise that the Christians take down the casinos for big bucks. But instead of raking in the dough they seem more often than not being asked to leave the premises and/or losing rather than winning at the tables. Leaders seem to not always be able effectively manage the team and some are not up to the skills needed to be a successful card-counter. These group dynamics get tedious. Card-counting is presented at the being easy at the beginning, but then many they take into the group struggle and with some even being suspected of stealing (no spoiler but one in a very crazy way). To me the dichotomy between adherence to Fundamentalist Christianity and gambling is not resolved, as hard as members of the team try to.
