All the best scenes were ones featuring Kevin Costner. Aside from those and the opening sequence there isn’t much here.

Best movie I've years. Heart-wrenching, so clever, and a beautiful example of master storytelling. Felt a bit rushed at the end, though. I wouldn't mind sticking around for another 10 minutes

Jessica Chastain and Idris Elba are awesome. And it is Aaron Sorkin's movie too. I'm not saying you should run to see it right now, but DO NOT miss this movie

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.

When Sorkin does go off on side episodes, they’re for the greater good. Molly’s dealings with a nihilistic and smarmy A-list movie star (Michael Cera), a gambler (Bill Camp) who loses his cool, and the drunk Irishman (Chris O‘Dowd) responsible for pulling the Russian mafia into her games actually boost the overall narrative rather than cannibalize it.

No one knew Mr. Sorkin was a good director, but he is, and his filmmaking chops come topped with intelligence and curiosity. That makes it all the more remarkable, and I don’t mean good remarkable, when the film takes a last-reel turn into slushy psycho-sappiness, enlisting someone we thought we’d seen the last of to explain what the story was really about.
