Smokin' Aces is a mildly entertaining post-Tarantino crime film that has lots going for it, but for some reason or another it never really delivers. There are too many characters and plot lines some of which are left undeveloped. Almost all of the characters are way too overblown.
The film has Alicia Keys as a sexy assassin in it, though. I couldn't say anything bad about that aspect.
It also has great ending credits, as evidenced below.

It has some of the same sort of not-quite quality as the hugely popular comedy THE HANGOVER.
ReplyDeleteBut SMOKIN' ACES is funnier.
Haven't seen that one, but I'm sure you're right.
