Jessica Chastain

Her default setting is gorgeous but she looked ravishing in this.

She's attractive in this but her sexiest role is still the movie Jolene.

Of course, Jolene is a more sexually aggressive film than MG. It was kind of funny watching men grovel at her feet and her turning them down one by one. haha..

However, I was not sure why they chose JC to play this role. Molly Bloom is not a redhead. At least, judging from all the pics and live interviews I've seen of her on the net, I don't think she is.

Although JC colored her hair, it was still very noticeable that she's a redhead. That being said, I think she did play this role well but was the film compelling? I guess so, but the dialogue moved a little too fast for me. I had to rewind it several times to catch all of it.

Still, the dialogue might be the best part of the movie. There are some pretty good exchanges going on between Molly and her lawyer, Charlie Jaffey. But then again, I am not sure why they also casted Idris Alba to play Bloom's lawyer? Her attorney(s) was white. Michael Cera was an oddball choice too... but I won't go off on it. He was alright I guess.

The dialogue did get a little heavy though, you almost need to be an expert on poker, accounting and law to really catch everything in the movie. LOL! And fortunately for me, I am very knowledgeable in these fields. :)

That being said, I thought it was pretty good but not great. I'll give it a 6.5 out of 10.
