This is a movie that isn't for everyone for sure. It shows a very dark side of man and what he will do for the almighty dollar.

The premise is simple: A naive young man assumes a dead man's identity and finds himself embroiled in an underground world of power, violence, and chance where men gamble behind closed doors on the lives of other men.

Without giving anything away, it is about men gambling on other men who play russian roulette. I always judge a movie more on how it ends than anything as that is what makes a great movie for me. This one in my opinion has captured an ending that is unexpected and therefore gets full marks from me for this.

The scenes with the russian roulette are very tense and I feel that the actors did a fantastic job in showing the emotions that one must go through.

I have been unable to find a trailer on-line for this but recommend it to anyone who likes to be involved with the characters. 4 out of 5 from me as it has touched me. This is not a feel good movie so be warned.

Heh Mickey Rourke, I'll probably have to watch it now. You should check out the movie The Deer Hunter, Christopher Walken is a roulette master.
