If you loved The Big Swindle, try Tazza: The High Rollers

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

Both films are directed by Choi Dong-hoon, and they both carry the playful, raw mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Big Swindle, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tazza: The High Rollers is

A gambling movie that thinks it's about addiction. Go-ni is swindled out of his savings, then seeks revenge by learning from a legendary tazza, or card shark. Desire proves bottomless, as Go-ni seeks ever greater challenges. Turns out: gambling movies are about gambling.
