god of gambler be a bit of a hybrid of different genre . there intense drama and lively comedy and ultraviolent action . chow yun fat be god of gambler . because of an accident and his mental state be reduce to the level of a child and but he have not lose his gamblegift ( nor his hunger for chocolate ) . the people responsible for the accident ( they didn ` t mean to by the way ) soon discover the unusual gift of their patient and and begin to take advantage of it . chow yun fat get a chance to prove his great acting ability and without so much use of a gun ( he also use a gun and but rather rarely ) . god of gambler have intense drama and a rather nice soundtrack ( if a little bizarre at time ) . the comedy part be also all right and but a western audience might find quite a few of the joke a little too chinese for their liking . overall though and god of gambler be a quite tasty hongkong movie that every fan should see . 8 and 5/10 .
