Mumbai, the sprawling metropolis, the economic capital of India is synonymous with ambition and a drive for professional success and money-making : something Rahul possesses in ample amounts. Working in a BPO he has found out a sure-shot way to his promotion - the key to his uncle's apartment where he is the house sitter. His colleagues and superiors use the apartment for their sexual escapades and return the favour to Rahul by offering him job incentives and promotions. Rahul loves his colleague Neha, but he's shocked to find out that she is in love with their boss Ranjeet who is a married man and on top of it they use Rahul's apartment for the purpose of their secret dalliance. On the other hand, Ranjeet's married life with Shikha is on the verge of collapse. Unaware of her husband's infidelity, Shikha finds solace in he company of an aspiring actor Akash and their friendship threatens to blossom into a full-fledged affair which might shatter the foundation of Shikha's married life. Meanwhile, Shikha's younger sister Shruti is searching for a suitable groom for herself through marriage portals, and it's then that she meets Monty. She harbours an instant dislike for him but may find out in the course of time that opposites attract, after all. Then there is the story of Shikha's old dance teacher Vaijayanti who is widowed and lives in an old age home and her former love Amol who rekindle their romance in the twilight of their lives, against all odds. The turmoil these relationships go through force these people to make some life-altering decisions.
男主演技相当不错，几乎一个人完成了一部电影，还能不分神的看完。只是以我的肤浅认识还是以失败而告终，不免充满遗憾。
美国的赌场太丑了，丑到不适合认真地拍摄，马丁Casino里浮夸的内饰和配色，用夸张掩盖了审美上的不适，再加上年代滤镜，自有一种浮夸复古范；电影里写实拍摄的当代赌场让我对类似Vegas场所的厌恶毫无保留地涌出来了。
满心期待想找，看下来跟扑克一点关系没有。 可能还是不够年纪看这种救赎的电影，压抑极了。
奥斯卡伊萨克塑造出的这个形象太迷人。影片呈现了他的忧郁、审慎、沉稳，并告诉观众他的过去是如何在燃烧，却将暴力，丑恶和热烈的一切都隐去，留待想象，正是一种不忍直视。
“He can recognize the Transcendent,he can study those methods which brought him to that realization,but that actual ‘why’of that realization is a mystery.”
摄影和配乐都很好，但是故事不够戏剧化，多了真实感，却过于平淡让人食之无味，弃之可惜。
BD:2022.7.12 , 这部电影太合我的胃口了。气氛，故事，配乐歌曲........《电影手册》2021年十佳片单 https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/KHXu03_aqzOfikew3vbPAQ； 保罗·约瑟夫·施拉德出生于1946年7月22日，是美国著名的剧作家、电影导演、电影评论家，最为人们称道的是他的剧本，其中最有名的是他和马丁·斯科赛斯合作的《出租车司机》和《愤怒的公牛》。
Redemption is addictive with no end in sight for sinners seeking an end
I'm sorry what was this???
并没有那么差，但又的确很多时候并没有满足类型期待。
[20211225 下载]是真没get到到底在讲什么，只知道男主是真的只喜欢打牌，在哪无所谓
一个比较好的题材被导演和编剧毁得只剩形式不见高潮与转折 旧时的伤痛没说好 打扑克也没讲到点子上 两相不连贯 结果平淡得有如催眠
完全看在男主颜值份上，听说这片被雪藏过，看来是明智的。剧情，惊悚，动作，一样没沾边。
充满装腔作势的台词和戏码，三十分钟后就继续不下去了
各方面都干净克制，也就用这么点干净对抗肮脏了。监狱的单一生活，牌桌上的简单数字， 写日记的习惯……终究避无可避，如同主角的名字谐音“Will Tell”一样，真相在鱼眼镜头下扭曲的梦魇里窒息，年轻人的复仇被杀和主角的复仇都在画外，没有给观众一丝释放怜悯或者快感的机会，只留下五彩灯带里牵起的双手和隔着玻璃触碰的指尖。
故事的抽离加分，但总体感觉上有点儿明显的刻意。赌场上的USA必胜叫人忍俊不住
Absolutely underrated. Dense and tense.
《第一归正会》中的喻体：环保议题本身与救赎主题无关，因此处理得游离且荒诞，拓展出黑色幽默式的修辞；这一部里的喻体其实就是赌牌，它仍然浮于主题的表面，却被刻画得抒情又板正，最终甚至导致了电影情境的崩盘——建议把《出租车司机》忘了吧！
预想中精彩的赌局基本上没有的 只有梦呓一般的鱼眼ptsd噩梦重现 节奏太慢了节奏感也太差了 每个人物的出场又都莫名其妙没有连惯感 看得一直走神 浪费了奥斯卡的好演技
比我预想的“水进戛纳主竞赛的大俗片”要好很多，甚至有一度想给四星，两个漂浮在水面上不了岸的人相拥沉湖，他们还是没有放过自己，轻轻点出关塔那摩虐囚事件，赢牌的每声“USA!”都讽刺的有些刺耳
