After release from Leavenworth, an ex-military man takes up a quiet life
of calculated casino gambling. Paul Schrader's brooding, focused THE
CARD COUNTER continues his obsession with obsession (e.g., TAXI DRIVER,
THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST). Although his point here doesn't fully
resonate with me, the journey is compelling. Mostly recommended.

Mr. Pig; I posted my review of "The Card Counter" before I saw yours.
To say we disagree in our assessment of this film would be an
understatement.
