When a Las Vegas bodyguard with lethal skills and a gambling problem gets in trouble with the mob, he has one last play… and it's all or nothing.
Nick Wild is a professional gambler and ex-military bodyguard living in Las Vegas. He makes a living taking on bodyguard jobs for wealthy clients in dangerous situations. When his friend Holly is brutally attacked, Nick sets out to find the perpetrators and exact revenge, which plunges him into the violent underworld of the city.
Wild Card was poorly received by critics, who found its plot predictable and the action uninspired. While Jason Statham's presence was noted, the film generally failed to impress with its convoluted story and lack of originality.
Google audience: Audience reviews indicate a disappointment with the film's unoriginality and a lack of engaging storytelling. Many felt it was a forgettable entry in the action genre, with some appreciating Statham's performance but not enough to salvage the overall experience.
The film is a remake of the 1986 Burt Reynolds film Heat, which was also based on a novel by William Goldman.
