A hypnotic character portrait
Croupier is a film that shouldn’t work. It doesn’t have a conventional plot, doesn’t seem to be about anything, (it’s got gambling in it and is set inside a casino, but isn’t really about gambling.) and the main character seems to have no clear desire for anything. I’m still wondering why I enjoyed it so much. Perhaps the absence of these motifs that you’d expect in any conventional film is what makes it special, I suspect that they add to it’s originality, but what really makes the film work is how completely engaging the main character is made.

Jack Manfred, from his chain smoking to his dry voice-over, is completely engaging as a character, without having to go through any obvious conventionalities that would force the audience into finding him endearing. This is surely a combination of Mike Hodges directorial skill, the script and Clive Owen’s acting ability.

The film is essentially a character study, with a front of a gambling film, that examines this character and his relationships with the people in his life, – his girlfriend, boss, father and colleagues, how he sees the world, and how he will cope when presented with certain situations.

It is brought to the screen with quality that demands attention and a score that heightens the atmosphere the film creates and really sets the tone.

Icy-cool Noir
Croupier is an excellent icy-cool noir film. The movie has a David Mamet feel to it. I really enjoyed this movie, but the last 30 minutes left me a bit bewildered. Clive Owen is fantastic as the calm and cool Jack Manfred. A struggling writer, Jack takes up an offer from his seemingly estranged relationship with his bizarre dad to interview at a Casino for a Croupier job. Jack gets the job to the consternation of his girlfriend, Marion, who seems to be bi-polar. The requisite cast of delicious characters at the casino elevates Jack’s coolness factor as he narrates in the 3rd person throughout the movie – to great effect. Croupier is a classic character study. The ethics & rules that Jack has placed upon him thru his employer get strained and blurred. The robbery scene was very disjointed and confusing – what happened? The death of Marion left more questions than answers and the revelation that Jack’s dad was in fact behind the casino robbery was not developed enough. The movie flows so neatly and clean, I think it could have gone another 10 – 15 minutes with more development of the loose ends.
