No more Bets is a great well written thiller with great twists and surprises and a great cast and a very different type of performance from Lay from EXo fame The movie was very tence and make great use of its budget and locations and the movie highlights real life issues and gives use viewers a real insight of China and Cambodia .

The movie is a box office success and it's very well deserved and I expect many more thillers in the future to capture this type of tone and atmosphere within the movie as it was great 2 hour movie and it really has a interesting payoff for all characters invloed for the movie.

This movie really offers an unprecedented look into the complex web of the new type of overseas telecommunications and cyber fraud. The plot draws inspiration from real fraud cases across China, featuring realistic portrayals of the industry's inner workings. I was impressed by Director Shen Ao who revealed that he studied over 10,000 cases and interviewed a variety of people, from victims to police officers, to gain inspiration for the movie and also sought help from police and the anti-fraud center to collect information related to such online scams over the past three years.

Considering the amount of information gathered and people involved, I think the plot successfully managed to unfold from the perspectives of the criminals, the police and especially the victims. Some scenes seemed indeed quite cruel but it was stated the actual cases are even more extreme and what really went on was a hundred or a thousand times darker, crueler, and more brutal this movie came across as very realistic and I think overall the actors did a really great job.

I can understand now why the movie is considered so far a major success and since it was released amid widespread debate around overseas cyber fraud on social media, where dozens of people shared their experiences of being tricked by lucrative job offers, I believe "No More Bets" will hold a profound significance by educating people and by preventing others from being scammed.

I'm surprised by this movie. I heard from news that it is about scam jobs that are prevalent in Southeast Asia today. This movie depicted the situation realistically. I admire the movie attempt to also portray that the victims are on both side. I also like the moral lesson that the movie sent. Gambling is not just bad, it is destructive, and it consumes every one you love. I wish more people watch this movie, especially in Southeast Asia where thousands of people were conned to work in this scamming and online gambling center every month. I hope Southeast Asia authorities also serious in cracking down them.

This movie is a rollercoaster ride..Amazing movie ... I was totally hooked from the starting.. It will tell you the reality of scams and frauds which happen and how horrible the outcomes can be.... I m really impressed by the acting of the cast specially the character played by zhang Yixingggg...the scenes were so genuine and natural... I will recommend you to watch this.. The direction, makeup was on point..no wonder the movie is doing great.. If we talk about visuals of the movie.. those are great too in comparison of the budget.. You will not be disappointed.. Pls give it a try it will open your eyes..

Were this not based on a true story, then I'd have thought you couldn't have made it up! A rather stroppy but brilliant programmer is passed over for promotion and so storms off in a huff. Like a great many clever men, "Pan Sheng" (Yixing Zhang) is a bit thick when it comes to the practical things in life and after a short plane journey finds himself attached to the lively and charismatic "Cai" (Sunny Sun) who is clearly too good to be true. A bus trip ensues and then "Pan" - and the other passengers - are promptly all but imprisoned working in a scam factory where betting odds are controlled and manipulated, where pretty girls are forced to host gaming tables and all essentially work to facilitate a complex fleecing operation that capitalises on the vulnerabilities of people at home who are successfully sucked into a fraud that nets the criminals millions of dollars and causes no end of collateral damage to those who find themselves addicted. "Pan" and former model, turned croupier, "Liang Anna" (Gina Chen Jin) try to concoct a way of escaping; of passing information to the outside summoning help - but their new guardians are savvy to just about every ploy they try. Interestingly, there is a glimmer of hope offered to all of them by their boss "Lu" (Chuan-jun Wang). He does allow them the prospect of buying their freedom - make enough money and off you go? Really? Hmmm. I did find the story fascinating - the use of some of the brightest minds to cleverly massage the data for an industry that is largely unregulated on a transnational basis is breathtaking. These guys basically print their own money as efficiently as if they had their own mint. Zhang does ok, even if he's a bit lightweight; it's Gina Jin who delivers the goods as an actor as the plot heads towards an admittedly rather unpredictable denoument. Sadly, there's far too much dialogue and the film drags it's feet all too often. A stronger, more effective, lead actor and half an hour less of preamble and waffle and Ao Shen could have given us a powerful indictment of human greed - on both sides of the computer screen. It's still watchable, though.
