Great Movie
A great movie and an extraordinary perrfomance from Russel Crow. An history about the true friendship, and waht a man can do if knows that his about to die, but also what a man is capable to do because of the money, if in some kind of trouble he´s capable even to betray a firend, a very good friend. Very good history.
A good performance of all the actors, i liked the most off course the main caracter, the one and only Russe Crow, that allready has.allready used to it .A great scene is the moment that the main carachter goes and takethe truth serum, letting us knowing that he had some secret intention.
It´s very much worth seeing it! - mm-39 - 27 June 2023
Starts out weak, but gets better!
Poker Face starts out weak, but gets better! The movie's start of the band of kids was nice, but Poker Face divulges into self-absorbed rich people with regrets. A therapy session about selfishness, and going out to a retreat to find ones self is slow. Well Crowe has dyeing regrets and wants to play pokers and with his friends. If the viewer can sit threw the first half Poker Face turns into an art heist movie. Playing a game of wits between the criminal's vs Crowe. Poker Face is a tale of two movies. Slow and reflective in the first half, and second half is fast action paced. Probably a better book than a film. First half a three, and second half is a seven. Split the difference 5 stars.
