The Card Counter Reviews

Loved Oscar’s acting as always and the soundtrack was peak but the story just didn’t hit. Would give it a 7/10

Oscar Isaac’s chin was exposed the entire time…

Nice soundtrack. Mysterious and dark at times but fun. Never thought I’d see Oscar Isaac and Tiffany Haddish in same movie

Boring

I tried to like it, but the pacing and the directing were off-putting

Isaac is great as this character and he drew me in but as the story developed I became more and more disconnected. Just didn’t flow at all for me. The Haddish character felt so random and his relationship with Sheridan’s character seemed underwhelming. The whole cards thing - eh

boring

Don't like those super slow movies with supposedly deeper motives that take ages before things get clarified
Acting ain’t bad though

Really expected more. Could not stand this movie. Isaac is a talented actor and did what he could. Schroeder… what was going on?

Oscar Isaac project number (14?) so far. I don’t think I would have liked it or finished watching it if he wasn’t in it. Interesting premise but slow. And the twist was??? There I guess? LOVE Tiffany Haddish but tell me why her voice sounded like a voiceover half the time?

5/10

Save your time. Rubbish.

5/10

classic Schrader, big Light Sleeper vibes

Slow moving

The power of a methodical man, but wish to see much more of the main story in this!

Nothing really interesting. Stayed for Oscar Isaac.

Terrible film, really shouldn’t have been made

Major points docked for distractingly bad acting (mostly Ty and Tiffany) but great writing as usual from Schrader and a movie that has an incredibly interesting core story that goes well beyond the surface plot of the cards and casinos.

Can’t go wrong with Oscar honestly.
