Review of Mississippi Grind (2015) by David S — 04 Dec 2015
A road gambling character driven film, Mississippi Grind slowly slides its way down the Mississippi with random stops in between so Gerry (Ben Mendelssohn) can get his fix of a gambling addiction. Gerry's buddy Curtis who he feels is his good luck charm also comes along who also lives a life of gambles.
Its extremely character driven and I would not be shocked if Mendelsohn is in dark horse talks for Best Actor. It probably won't happen but he did an excellent job. Reynolds was also very good. In the end, the movie itself is a good watch if you like slow burners, but Mendelssohn's performance powers this movie through.
