13 Tzameti (2005) writer/director Géla Babluani gives his critically lauded thriller an English-language makeover in this remake featuring Mickey Rourke and Jason Statham. Handyman Vince Ferro (Sam Riley) is in a serious financial bind, and he decides to steal a mysterious envelope containing a lucrative job offer. Posing as the client he stole it from, Vince quickly finds himself participating in a bizarre game of Russian roulette in which degenerate gamblers wager on life and death. The rules are simple: Each participant loads a single bullet into a revolver, spins the chamber, and points it at another man's head. When the light bulb in the center of the room turns on, each contestant pulls the trigger. The players who survive live to play another round as the stakes get progressively higher. Should anyone attempt to escape, they're shot on sight. With a little luck, perhaps Vince can live through the game and collect a big-enough payout to solve all of his problems. Ray Winstone, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, Michael Shannon, and Alexander Skarsgard co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

REID S.

What a terrible movie, Rourke and Statham's roles are barely cameos. It drags out a 20 minute premise far too long with predictable and depressing results.

Why would any selfrespecting actor be in this film? It was grusome and just made no sense. Stay away! Grusome piece of trash and I wish I could have that 90 minutes of my life back that is how bad it was.

Kathryn C.

I picked it up because it was listed as action before I realized it was a remake of a movie someone recommended but I skipped because it was black and white and subtitled several years ago. Well it was more suspense than action but well done. Dark of course and it could have been tightened up but worth seeing Very much an ensemble piece.
