The Card Counter

Super boring. Misleading title (only 2 min of blackjack in the whole movie). Could have expressed the whole thing in about 30 min. The motivations of the characters were either not clear or non existent. In the top 10 worst movies I've seen.

Honestly shockingly boring. Literally the most memorable part of the movie was the "Kirk with a C" line. The only time the audience in the theatre laughed or made noise. Movie is not memorable, no one in the group who watched it can remember the movie title. It's been called "The Card Collector, The Gambler" etc... In all seriousness though, the one plus is the social commentary on the torture in Iraq. Which is why the movie gets a 2 not a 1. Also Haddish's tone doesn't fit the movie at all. Every time she speaks it almost sounds like she's being dubbed into the film after the fact. Her voice is almost in a comedic or playful tone, which is quite jarring when she's responding to the dark tone of all the other characters and Oscar's serious lines... And it's not for comedic relief, all her speech regardless of context sounds like that in the film. Unfitting.
