An ingenious and engaging film that immediately captivates with its cinematography and captivating rhythm. It begins like the classic stylish film about the underworld à la Guy Ritchie (see Snatch), but the evolution of the story generates a plot with a theme, well...

Jake wakes up in the hospital where he is diagnosed with a rare blood disease that is rapidly spreading through his body and the diagnosis is ruthless: he only has three days to live. When he returns home accompanied by two trusted friends, Jake realizes that someone has forced the door of his apartment and, intrigued by a note placed at the foot of the entrance (where it is written to collect the note itself), he manages to avoid a ambush where though Read all

plot

Hotshot gambler Jake Green is long on bravado and seriously short of common sense. Rarely is he allowed in any casino because he's a bona fide winner and, in fact, has taken so much money over the years that he's the sole client of his accountant elder brother, Billy. Invited to a private game, Jake is in fear of losing his life.
