Croupier

"Croupier" is about a man who becomes a casino dealer in order to mine for material for his novel.  After encountering the seedy world of casinos, he agrees to participate in a scam that nets him a crap ton of money.  He totally gets away with it and publishes a novel based on his experiences.

I'm going to keep this one short and sweet.

1) I love Clive Owen.  He doesn't let me down in this.  He's as cool and icy as ever.

2) This is a good, but not great movie.  Fun while it lasts but ultimately forgettable.

3) Why couldn't they find more attractive women to seduce him?  Even if a film is going to have so-so women naked in it, can't they at least look nude?  Ugh.

That's really all there is to say about this one.  If you like voiceover heavy, saxophone-soundtracked, pseudo-noir, than check this out.
