What are we to do with "Smokin' Aces" ? A first impulse is to give this alarmingly trigger-happy movie a bath. Jeremy Piven , playing a magician-turned-gangster, spends nearly every scene in a cold sweat, with dark, dilated eyes that make him look like an anime cokehead. (A bath would wash off that horrendous hairpiece, too.) And is there any room in the tub for Ben Affleck as a bail bondsman with a Windy City brogue or the trio of oversexed backwoods Nazis or the Ritalin-fueled karate kid who seems like an escapee from "Gummo" ? This movie would leave several rings around any bathtub.
