Review :

Is this a film noir or a social drama?

As a previous commentator in this forum pointed out, this film has a very promising opening. One expects a tense and gritty film noir. However, the film soon drifts into a standard social drama about immigration laws and has little to do with crime or gambling until the end. With the excellent opening many people who watched this film were probably expecting something very different and were like me, disappointed.
