With so many sucker bets coercing your hand before you're really ready to make a safe cinematic wager, this will be one film you won't mind losing your money to see.

In a movie about the con, the play is to hustle the audience into thinking it's more than it is.

Good fun for those who like Mametian con-inside-a-con-inside-a-con trickery.

O diretor/roteirista Damian Nieman mantém o filme com um ritmo sempre envolvente e conta com as ótimas atuações de todo o elenco (Stallone e Townsend, em especial).

Card sharks and grifters look like the stuff of an engrossing movie in Shade, but, in the end, under-realized direction and characters deliver less than a full deck.

A dramatic thriller with a large cast playing the hell out of some very juicy roles.

Shade is the kind of film that makes for a perfect Saturday night rental.

Loaded with dizzying cons and betrayals, it pays off with a satisfying and unpredictable finish.

A failure on every conceivable level -- from its trite, pedestrian dialogue to its static, torturous pacing.
