To make money you have to spend money. Lots of care is lavished on Jessica Chastain who's never looked sexier in a vampy sort of way. Felt like her breasts were auditioning for a part and landing the coveted roles every single time. It's going to hit you in the eye I guarantee it if you go and see the film.

    By now most people interested in movies might have heard about the true story of ex freestyle Olympic champion Molly Bloom who, after a devastating fall, recycled herself as THE nominal princess of clandestine poker game organizer extraordinaire for the rich and famous.

    This is what I learned from Molly's Game. Molly had a competitive streak nurtured by daddy Furher played indifferently by Kevin Costner. She had an affinity for expensive Louboutin shoes, a couture wardrobe, money, lots of it, and the presence of powerful men with copious deep pockets. She was mostly lonely, had no friends, relationships and interests other than the weekly organized

    Hot shot lawyer Charles, played with a sinuous American accent by Idris Alba predictably takes on the role of defense even though Molly is now broke and can't really afford him.

    The film is overly long. My mind wandered especially during the technical exposé on the finer art of poker playing. Sorkin does the same for skiing at the very beginning. Not a great start, I want to SEE not just hear and be told.
