Shade Movie Review 2003

Glamorous group of LA card sharks finds it's a very bad idea to scam the mob and need to take on ultimate legend "The Dean" (Stallone) to worm their way out of dire straits. Nieman, in his first directorial feature, shows that you can still flop with a winning hand as he leads the talent of this A-list of actors down the river.
