    Senator Roark: - Call...

    Senator Roark: [shows: Four Kings]

    Johnny: [shows: Four Aces]

    Johnny: See, I told you, I never lose.

    Johnny: I beat you, twice. That means I'm better than you are, and everybody knows it because I beat you again. Every time somebody tells this story - and they'll all say they won't tell it but they will - That's the story that will be told, again and again until you're dead... and after you're dead. I beat you forever.

    Johnny: And they all know what happens when you do.

    Sally: Then can I have a ride?

  • Dwight McCarthy: I've taken a beating before, but never anything like this. Never like this.

    [punch echoes]

    Dwight McCarthy: The sounds go wet. Maybe he keeps hitting me, I don't know. I'm gone. Gone to that place where there's no pain or thought. I wake up in mid air. The pavement rushes up to give me a big sloppy kiss.

  • Dwight McCarthy: You're insane.

    Ava Lord: No, Dwight. A crazy person would be anyone who belives me. And that would be you.

  • Senator Roark: Power is as power does.

  • John Hartigan: No one ever really guessed what hell is. It's watching the people you love, in pain.

  • Senator Roark: I'm holding a gun on you, young lady. The rules are, you pretend there's a chance I *won't* shoot you.

  • Marv: Remember when you did, remember what you did.

  • Marv: [to Nancy] I hope you don't mind me saying this, but... you look hot.

  • Senator Roark: Frankly, between you and me, I've finally accepted that Ethan was not presidential material. I'd have had a hard time buying him an election in an insane asylum. But he was my son, honey. He was my son. And now... he's gonna hear you scream. Scream.

    In 2005, it was a dark and cool high-cold style, and the story and characters were all great! But the second one, I waited for nine fucking years to show me this? ! The plot is full of flaws, and the logic is even less. Dwight became a sperm-brained idiot, and the actor was replaced by Josh Brolin, a dead facial paralysis. Eva Green is about to become a female version of Ivan and keeps taking off. 囧 Joseph's scene is a little abrupt. Gaga is surprisingly suitable for this style of painting.

    Ah, ah, green girl, come and trample me to death! ! ! ! Who else is more suitable for the role of femme fatale besides EVA, all the stars are given to EVA GREEN. The rest of the large monologues, the black and white violent scenes are as frequent as chopping watermelons and vegetables, and it is inevitable to be numb, and it is a little weak to watch in the middle of the night. JGL is really not suitable for the aura of this film, but Gaga is not very playful.
