Review of Dealt (2017) by Alex H — 20 Mar 2018
Little bit of a strange movie...Richard honestly seems like a bit of a jerk...and the movie features some really strange choices like including that he was mad the newspaper called him "blind" when he got his black belt in karate, which would be valid if he was George Clooney or somebody newsworthy but "magician gets black belt" just isn't something that would ever be covered in a sports section if it wasn't maybe somebody like Penn or Teller.
..so you come away thinking "man, what an ego" rather than "did something amazing with severe limitation". Also he seems really hard on his kid/wife and so it's kinda a portrait of an OCD guy who just happens to be the world's best at something.
