    Well worth watching but it would have been stronger with 1/2 hour or so cut . It moved too slow.

    So many excellent actors! It was a great goes around/comes around story, however the story was too slow moving to hold your attention. Not recommended.

    The story is so slow and lame that it was impossible to endure more than 20 minutes. Del Toro again proves that he is incapable of storytelling.

    The American Hustle of gothic thrillers. Entertaining enough but I feel like this ensemble could put together something far more interesting.

    Suitably grim and haunting. Don't look for the good guy and you'll have a great time.

    Um ótimo filme, que com seu desenrolar te da uma idéia sobre o eventual final. E no meio de tudo isso é mostrado o caráter do protagonista que é tomado pela ganância e vai ao fundo do poço.

    So much talent in a movie that can only disappoint. It is a very predictable tale that is being dragged out way too long. Not worth the time, though the killer cast makes the best of it. The atmosphere in the film is spot on, but you see everything coming from a mile away, and at the end you wish you'd stopped watching earlier. But it's a pretty 'beautiful' movie and that is probably why you can't stop watching the damn thing. Just ignore this one, and you'll be fine. This movie truly is not worth the watch.

    This is a show where nothing is as it seems to be, especially in the substance! Stanton Carlisle travels to a carnival where he discovers a new trick to win some big bucks, but it soon leads him to do the unthinkable, costing him everything in his life. With a stellar cast and a sense of unease in all scenes, we're in for a dark and delirious dream of misdirection, mystery and madness!

    A masterful blend of cinematography tied together with a plot that thickens to the point of inescapable viscosity. Superb performances from Bradley Cooper, Cate Blanchett, Rooney Mara and others help push the viewer along, even with the films lack of pace at times. All in all, another gem from Guillermo Del Toro.

    Even all the A listers in this movie couldn't save it. This was so boring. You kept waiting for something to happen to make all this suspense and build up mean something but nothing ever happens.
