Chastain is a gifted actress, but she's never been this riveting, the queen among the film's kings and aces

It's tempting to think of "Molly's Game" in poker terms: Sorkin's holding a queen, a king, and at least a couple of aces, but the tell is that he talks too much, and in the end you realize he's bluffing.

It's fun enough to watch Chastain's Bloom find her way, making things up she goes along.

Beyond painting Bloom as a young woman who saw an opportunity and grabbed it, the film's attempts at psychology don't pan out very convincingly. But for sheer voyeurism, this study of an illicit but unusually well-bankrolled demimonde is quite satisfying.

Neither traditional poker movie nor traditional sports movie, with Jessica Chastain holding the cards, Molly's Game is a winner. Deal me in!

Even though this is Sorkin's directing debut, quite a bit of the clarity comes from the visuals, annotated when necessary, precisely shot and edited with nearly every trick known to contemporary filmmaking.

It's a good, brash biopic. For the first hour it's very nearly terrific.

In 2018, it's important to make sure you're more Jesse than Mack - and Molly's Game will show you how.

... a study of success today, of power and how a woman gets it... [Full review in Spanish]

Few actors on the planet can shift gears as effortlessly as Chastain, who perfectly captures Molly's chameleon-like ability to adapt to situations and to rationalize her worst behavior.

The film grows increasingly turgid and tiresome in the second half.

At a certain point, everyone watching "Molly's Game" will form the question, "Why should I care about any of this?" It's a question Sorkin should have anticipated. He has no good answer.
