What a strange experience this film is

Easily one of the most uneven films of the year. The first half is a quite funny black comedy but in the second half it just kind of drops that and becomes a far more straight crime drama. The joke is I guess there's this grumpy old lady at the centre of it but that in and of itself isn't that funny. It actually becomes a bit sad and not in a good emotional way, sad in a 'I don't want to see gangsters attempt to strangle and shoot an old lady' kind of way. But at the same time she's not a particularly good person or sympathetic character so I don't really care that much either. What a strange experience this film is.

Became Lame

This started off well. A curmudgeon grandma with grand-kids who visits a soothsayer - and then goes off to the casino to see what can happen. It has a some good twists and turns.

But then - it just becomes a mafiosa story with standard shoot-outs and silly confrontations. Its like the directors had no idea what to do with their build-up and filled the latter half of the film with standard cliches that were very humdrum.
