Mendelsohn and Reynolds (and the rest of a good cast) are very watchable in this somewhat depressing story of a compulsive gambler (Mendelsohn) and his mysterious benefactor and good luck charm (Reynolds) on their way down the Mississippi from Iowa to New Orleans to enter a high stakes poker game. Oddly, however, the outcome doesn't even involve poker. Nice local atmosphere in each location, but ultimately, despite the strength of the performances, it falls short.

Suitable only for middle schoolers...makes it a lot like "Wonder Woman". This is probably the zeitgeist at work. A few humorous bits to help adults sit through it.

Fun, enjoyable film. I'd have liked more of the "cat" though. And if you watch through to end of the credits, there is a scene which is hysterical for anyone who is owned by a cat.
