I've known about this movie for almost 20 years, but have always set it aside for later... Has anyone seen this? If so, how would you grade it on a scale of 1-10? My first thought was that Jack's role sounded like Bruce's, and vice-versa.
share7/10 for me. The acting was excellent and it was interesting seeing the “old” Atlantic City.
shareI thought the writing was the problem, and no scene really took it off, and each felt totally separate....
And Jack is one of my favorite actors, but one of a few where he didn't play himself.. Maybe the movie before, too, "Carnal Knowledge"
Good point about Jack, especially since I saw so many subsequent performances before watching this one. It’s not the “classic Nicholson” that you’ve come to expect.
shareAgreed 100%.
