What a waste of my time!!!

Lack of good storyline.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Despite a simple premise seemingly rife with possibilities, this fast-moving yet unfocused action thriller bounces around from character to character without any real through-line until it reaches a twist-ending that thinks it's more clever and important than it actually is (as it doesn't even impact anything really). 'Smokin' Aces (2006)' is a film that screams "I'm cool" at every chance it gets but rarely makes more than a whimper, especially when placed in a room with its much more effortlessly stylish peers. Unfortunately, the script features frequent expository dumps that overload the viewer, making it hard to retain any of the information, and the infrequent action is always brief and underwhelming. The movie really isn't fun and it's actually quite cringe-worthy, at times. 4/10

This film tells the story of a magician who is put under witness protection because he is going to be a witness against big time mafia bosses. A big hunt for the magician by many bounty hunters begin, and the authorities have a hard time keeping the magician safe.There are so many characters in the story, that it takes thirty minutes to even introduce all of them! I find the story a bit confusing as a result, sometimes I don't know who is who. The pace is fast, and is filled with action packed scenes. There are so many gory scenes, some of which are very disturbing, while some of them are so maniacal that they become funny. Overall, I'm still quite shaken by the scale of the battles, it seems that everyone has to die!

FBI Deputy Director Stanley Locke (Andy Garcia), agents Richard Messner (Ryan Reynolds) and Donald Carruthers (Ray Liotta) are using Las Vegas magician wannabe gangster Buddy "Aces" Israel (Jeremy Piven) to bring down the last mob boss Primo Sparazza (Joseph Ruskin). Sparazza has issued a $1 million bounty on Israel. This brings in contract killers Lazlo Soot (Tommy Flanagan), Sharice Watters (Taraji P. Henson) and Georgia Sykes (Alicia Keys), Pasquale Acosta (Nestor Carbonell), and neo-Nazis Darwin (Chris Pine), Jeeves (Kevin Durand) and Lester (Maury Sterling). Bail bondsmen Jack Dupree (Ben Affleck), Pete Deeks (Peter Berg) and Hollis Elmore (Martin Henderson) hired by sleazy lawyer Rip Reed (Jason Bateman) who wants him back.This is a massive mess of crazy characters in a stylized gangster movie. It's nearly impossible to connect with any of the characters. The writing is all style and nothing too sharp. There are some crazy fun action as long as one can maintain attention long enough to see them.
