The Card Counter (2021)

"The Card Counter" is Paul Schrader's brooding thriller about a former military interrogator turned professional gambler, drifting through casino towns while a shot at redemption and revenge slowly closes in on him. Oscar Isaac anchors the film with a controlled, simmering performance that carries most of its tension. Fans looking for his more exposed side will find one scene clip on site, a quieter, intimate beat tucked into the film's cold, disciplined atmosphere. It's a small but worthwhile addition for anyone tracking Isaac's range beyond the poker table.
