Aaron Sorkin is one of the most instantly recognizable writers of the modern era, whether or not you have any idea what he looks like. The creator of The West Wing and The Newsroom, and the screenwriter of The Social Network and Steve Jobs, has a knack - or at least a propensity - for telling stories about fast-talking intellectuals whose brains are overflowing with observations and anecdotes, most of which are thematically important by the end of the conversation… a conversation that had at least a 40% chance of being given while the characters walked somewhere.
Sorkin’s particular writing style has a tendency to overpower even the most dynamic filmmakers. It would be difficult to confuse the films of David Fincher and Danny Boyle, and yet their films The Social Network and Steve Jobs are clearly connected, for better or worse, by a single voice. So it was always going to be interesting to see what such a distinctive writer would do in his directorial debut, and find out whether he’s as sharp behind a camera as he is with a pen.
The answer to that question lies in Molly’s Game, a biographical drama about Molly Bloom, who ran a high-stakes poker game for rich people, famous people, powerful people, and eventually dangerous criminals. It was a nebulously legal line of work in the first place and lines are eventually crossed, until ultimately Molly Bloom was indicted by the FBI and forced to explain herself, and possibly ruin the lives of her players.
Aaron Sorkin and poker are a pretty obvious match, since they both build anticipation through the use of deception and repartee. Molly’s Game is at its best when it’s wrapped up in the high-stakes poker games, the unexpected turns of fate, and the spirit of competition that drives Molly Bloom to take charge of the game and the players.
Molly’s Game doesn’t announce Aaron Sorkin as the next great filmmaker, but he’s a good one. It’s a competently filmed production with some fine performances, but it lacks the focus and showpersonship that would be necessary to make it feel like more.
