Statham plays a pro body guard with a black jack problem. He gets himself in hot water for avenging a call girl's beating meted out by a mega-rich high roller. Lotsa A-list cameos in the film with plentiful violence, of course.
One thing, Statham is brought to some weird casino-justice by Tucci who owns the casino of the rape incident. He went willingly knowing that "Bunny" could sentence him to death! (Can that be based on any truth?)
Statham and his partner had their office front and digs in Paradise and the tone of the movie was what real Vegas people do. His character hated Vegas but just couldn't escape the Black Jack table or life. An evil quicksand, per se.
Red Box or 1ch.
