There are two Chinese translation names, one is "The King of Gamblers" and the other is "Genius Game". The former's name is too big, which is a bit eye-catching. The latter is a bit off topic, there is no genius, and it is not a game. Although this film is relatively compact, it is not so arrogant, it just tells the stories of some bad gamblers.

Before Matt Damon played The Bourne, he played a lot of smart geniuses. I have always thought that his appearance is of that kind of stupid root type, no matter how stupid he looks, but he has created so many talented characters, and he is really good at it.

Edward Norton plays a shameless, hopeless, incorrigible gambler in this film, which is disgusting, and the character setting is a bit sloppy at the end.
