SUCKER

 

REVIEWED
This is an Australian movie I reckon produced by its chinese community. Dont worry when they speak chinese in some parts as the subtitles sufficed.

Saw this movie without any expectations and it didnt be as comedic as I hoped for but didnt totally fail as it did entertained.

Its a con movie or as they say in the movie a "professional lies" movie. Like a few other movies of this kind it shows how this team comprise of father, daughter(?) and chinese friend protege went from town to town conning people before reaching the ultimate con on a poker table. It shows how they sustain as conning is their jobs. And if you want to know a few tricks for you to create your own con job, you could really apply the con from this movie. I think it can work ! I am sure some con artist could use some of the tricks for their own benefit. You never know that con artists use some of the tricks like they did in this movie. Some require team work and risk that anything can go wrong. But all for all you need practice, then perfect the con, master them then repeat them.

The Chess trick at the beginning of the movie is brilliant where the Professor played with 10 people at the same time and won on the average. But the thing is, he was never good at chess its just that his strategy that was brilliant. But still I beg to differ if it can actually be done unless the opponent actually move according to what the other opponent did. You got to see this to understand.

The movie is not a let down but dont expect movie with exaggerate slapstick for it have not. Watching it you want to find out what will happen in the end.. and that is a formula of  a good movie.
