Redemption is the long game in Paul Schrader's THE CARD COUNTER. Told with Schrader's trademark cinematic intensity, the revenge thriller tells the story of an ex-military interrogator (Oscar Issac) turned gambler haunted by the ghosts of his past. There was an ad for this movie on HBOMax, so I decided to check it out since the trailer looked good. Was I disappointed? Check out my view today!
