The Plan

- The thing i especially enjoyed about this film was the entire concept of it, its perfect to get your audience all tensed up before its even started with the simple explanation of a man taking all of his savings and putting it all on roulette. Such is the human mind that when you encounter tales of such risky situations that you end up imagining that you are in the same situation, you end up feeling every single emotion that the main character feels simply by using that bit of psychology.
- Another thing i rather enjoyed about this film is how after it all, the seemingly pointless thievery of the camera, the gearing himself up to finally leave his girlfriend and to try and escape his life to the new, he still loses. I'm not sure if this is some sort of lesson but if it is it could have several meanings ranged from basic ones like 'don't gamble' to more advanced ones such as' put it all on the line for what you want and although you might lose some of it, there's still a good chance of you getting what you want' as of course the girl gives him her address.
- Another thing i like about the film is how when he finally enters the casino we see the camera go into slow motion and are presented by nothing but the sound of the ball on roulette and the announcers voice saying 'no more bets' and slow motion blended footage of the roulette board and wheel.
