"God of Gamblers" is a typical commercial and entertainment film, whose style far exceeds its content. Putting gambling in the gray area into a movie, and portraying the gambler as a god, announced a departure from orthodox values from the beginning. The deconstruction of general values, the rejection of traditional themes and the belief in entertainment supremacy constitute the main theme of the film. Wang Jing told an overly cliché story - the big guy lost his memory, the gambler rescued, the traitor succeeded, the beautiful woman was in distress, and in the end, the big guy recovered and the wicked were punished. Its main storyline has basically nothing worthy of in-depth interpretation, so that the audience can completely put aside their thinking. Complementing the lack of content with style is the success of "God of Gamblers". God of Gamblers Tiger Luo Pingyang became a fool, and what followed was funny, and a little soft porn was added as a seasoning. At the end of the film, the God of Gamblers recovered, and Chow Yun-fat defeated the villain in a calm mood, which made the audience feel extremely happy. The successful capture of the actor's demeanor and temperament has made Chow Yun-fat's "God of Gamblers" a style of its own, which has been shaped into a brand image in the history of Hong Kong movies, and has also become a signature character of Wang Jing's gambling films.
