cinemajesty Movie Review: "Wild Card" (2015)Actor Jason Statham delivers in a tailored action-character role as Nick Wild as one of Las Vegas common inhabitants, seeking a glorious exit with an hardship-calculated money-amount of so-believed eternal bliss, when Wild blows his chance gets into trouble with the usual suspect gang, alongside glamorous supports from actress Sofía Vergara over Dominik Garcia-Lorido to always upscaling Stanley Tucci under the fast-tracked direction of "Con Air" approved director Simon West, when this 85-Minute movie brings the goods for a quick take of entertainment and leading man in best form to enjoy with no strings attached in two excellent-executed because precisely-chereographed as elegantely captures gun-hand-gun combat scenes with sharp-edged twist of splendid slow-motion shots much to portfolio benifits for capable as talented cinematography Shelley Johnson, elevating this action-drama to be a "Wild Card" in motion pictures indeed. © 2018 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)

ryanjgibbard Bland. The plot is very predictable and given away completely by the trailer. Characters are annoying or lacking in depth (why even get a well known actress, Sofia Vergara, for the opening five minutes for her to never return) and the ending is just ridiculously stupid. The redeeming quality is the hand-to-hand combat. A generic Statham film, you know what you're getting.

toddg-473-289818 In WILD CARD, Jason Statham plays Nick Wild, a hard drinking bodyguard with a gambling problem who is trying to leave Las Vegas. He gets hired to help a nerdy kid named Cyrus to overcome his fear of living, while being asked to extract revenge on three connected thugs who beat up his ex girlfriend. If this plot description sounds convoluted and hard to follow, it's because it is. There is little to cheer for here, from the one dimensional thugs to the battered ex girlfriend. Even the presence of Sofia Vergara and Jason Alexander at the beginning of the film were useless, and seemed more likely as a scheme to try to sell more tickets and/or give those actors an easy paycheck.The one saving grace in the movie was Stanley Tucci's portrayal as a Steve Wynn type casino owner who clearly has the power to kill any enemy, but remains noticeably calm because he doesn't have to raise his voice to anyone. Other than that, this movie isn't worth watching.
