Which is better - House of Games or Spanish Prisoner

If you don't mind subtitles (or speak Spanish) try the Argentinian film "Nine queens".

There is a hollywood remake called Criminal, but personally I'd stick with the original.

House of Games is easily superior.

Also, Nine Queens is pretty good (it's in Spanish with subtitles), and it helps if you know that Argentina had a serious banking/economic collapse in 2000/2001.

House of Games is clearly the better film IMO. Strong woman lead...sexy Joe Montagne...and the ending was both unpredictable and immensely satisfying to this viewer.
