Casino

I've been following this gripping and fascinating Canadian TV show that follows Stéphane Dumas, a man who returns to Canada after he has unfairly spent two years in a prison in Venezuela for drug trafficking. While he was in prison, Stéphane learned one important thing: hiding his cards, or rather his schemes. Once he is in the city of Montréal, Stéphane discovers that not only he has to take revenge against his childhood friend Kim-Dee (the man who was supposed to spend two years in prison in Venezuela), but he also has to get revenge against a casino by... cheating, because his father killed himself when he lost his money.

In my whole life, I've had the chance to watch many Canadian TV show and I can tell you very honestly that only few of them really kept me interested to the point that I am looking forward to follow it week after week. Even though some sub-plots in this nice script written by Réjean Tremblay are not as interesting as they ought to be, the TV show gives us more reason to follow it because it is so unpredictable. The acting is not a problem here. Everybody plays quite brilliantly. On the other hand, since it is a TV show written by Réjean Tremblay, it should also tell you that this is the kind of show that you watch in order to let yourself be seduced by beautiful actresses such as Kim Lambert and Catherine Sénart.
