Smokin Aces prequel ramps up and gets director

I thought Smokin’ Aces was a complex and somewhat engaging contract killer crime movie. It came and went, but didn’t move many cinephiles enough to turn it into a cult gangland film…or even a DVD keeper really.

The robots are rusty and more menacing also. I got ….
