If you loved Cassandra's Dream, try Smokin' Aces
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Cassandra's Dream, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Smokin' Aces is
Las Vegas, a smoky poker room, the sound of shuffling cards. A performer turned informant, mob hitmen closing in, and a web of double crosses. Carnahan's kinetic style amplifies the chaos.
