A Tale of Two Cities

The beginning of the film is good, but the happy ending is too cliché. Mickey Rosa, played by President Shimoki, has absolutely no reason to end the scene in person, giving the impression that he was forced to die for the ending.

Jim Sturgess plays the male protagonist Ben, and he does a good job of turning a nerd into a gambling god. His fat best friend was very impressive. After the male protagonist finished talking to him, he said, "I would probably do the same if I changed it." die laughing.

Kate Bosworth is also good, although the sister paper played is not very prominent, but at least it can be regarded as a vase above the standard.

In terms of locations, the film begins with a long shot of Boston. There are more of the lavish Las Vegas. Switching back and forth between these two very different cities gives a rather profound impression.
