Reviews
"For once here is a British film that is both tough and intelligent, and so well-researched that it will probably tell you more about how casinos work than had it been a documentary."
-- George Perry, BBC NEWS
"Croupier is a stylish, riveting dramatic crime story, loaded to the gills with subtext, character development, and plot twists you'll be puzzling over all night."
-- Greg Dean Schmitz, UPCOMINGMOVIES.COM
