Plot

Dorothy Macha (Ray Liotta) is a gang boss involved in illegal gambling throughout the city. With the help of three thugs, known as the "three Eddies", he controlled some of the games that took place underground. On one occasion, just before the big game, Macha lost her name card. With no chance left, Macha asks for Jake Green's help (Jason Statham), a card man with a good reputation underground. When Jake refuses, they annoy Jake's brother, Billy (Andrew Howard), and Billy's family to convince Jake to play. He gave up and played the game, which he finally won. The defeated, high roller named George, insulting Jake's mother and Jake respond by shooting him in the leg, triggering a shoot-out where the game's money is lost.

The police investigation did not lead anywhere until Jake's name was mentioned and he was taken for questioning. Taking precautions, Macha sent three Eddies to Billy's house where they threatened her niece. Billy's wife reacted badly in the situation and was accidentally shot. Jake did not give Macha a name to the police to protect Billy and his family and was eventually sentenced to jail. He was given the option to spend 14 years in a public prison population or 7 years in solitary confinement. He chose the last one.

During his seven years of imprisonment in solitary confinement, Jake learns about a particular strategy (called "The Formula") that should lead his users to win every game. The formula itself was discovered by two unnamed people who inhabited adjacent cells on either side of Jake himself. They are referred to as chess and con artists. During the first five years of the seven-year sentence, the three men communicate their thoughts about self-confidence tricks and chess movements through messages hidden in library books, such as The Mathematics of Quantum Mechanics .

Chess and con artists plan to leave their cells simultaneously, and promise to bring Jake with them. But when they disappear from their cells, they leave Jake behind to live the remaining two years of his sentence. When Jake is released, he discovers that all his possessions and money have been taken by two people with whom he shares everything. However, he owns The Formula, and he will make a lot of money in various casinos. Two years later, Jake has gained a reputation for causing many casinos to fear excellent luck, and he is blacklisted by many casinos for fear he will earn money in them. The formula applies to any game, and is often exemplified by Jake's clear chess mastery. This story revolves around the rise of Jake's epifenic, as he learns how to apply Formula to the 'game' of life.

About two years after his release in prison, Jake, Billy and their other brother Joe go into one of the Macha casinos. She is recognized and "all tables are closed" to Jake and his friends. But Macha immediately summoned them to the private area of â€‹â€‹his casino where a high roller game was under way. Jake bet Macha fortune on the chip's throw, and wins. This hurt Macha. As Jake says "nothing is more painful than humiliation and a little money lost". Macha suspects that Jake, who does not seem afraid of him, will come out for more revenge. When Jake and his siblings leave the casino, a man gives Jake a card and tells him that he can help her. Jake, who is afraid of the enclosed spaces, decides to climb the stairs. On the stairs he saw the card and then collapsed, falling off the stairs. The card was revealed to read "Take Elevator". Jake was rushed to the hospital. The doctors reported he was very ill but did not reveal why he suffered a power outage.

Macha issued a command to attack Jake. Jake arrives home, without Billy, to be greeted by one of Macha's hits. However, in front of the door is another card, which reads "Pick This Up". As Jake leaned over to pick up the bullet of cards flying over his back. As the shootings continued, the same mysterious individual called Zach (Vincent Pastore) arrived and rescued Jake who was the only survivor of the attack. Zach introduces Jake to his partner, Avi (AndrÃƒÆ'Ã‚ Â© Benjamin). They offer him a deal: they will take all his money and he will do what they say, no questions asked. Instead, they will protect Jake from Macha. In their proposal process, they showed Jake his medical file, which they got under mysterious circumstances. This indicates that a power outage occurs due to a rare blood disease that will cause his death in three days. Jake suspects a cheat. The mysterious man later revealed that his money would be used to fund their moneylenders' business.

Sam Gold looks to be the 'king' in this chess game of gang warfare. He is the supreme figure everyone expects. Sam Gold is revealed to be the ultimately helpless cipher, whose strength is only given by the people who invested in him. It represents ego and self-investment. He is the personification of greed. It was revealed that Avi and Zach were Jake's "neighbors" during his years of detention. They have forced Jake to "induce a headache to engage the enemy" by making him give his money under the principle that "nothing is more painful than insult and a little money lost". They caused a form of 'premature enlightenment' on Jake because, according to them, he was not ready to hear how difficult this liberation process would be in jail. This is why they go without it.

Avi tries to make Jake understand the nature of the ego. He tells Jake "the biggest swindler [ego] ever did was make you believe he was you." It is seen as the 'ultimate conquest', because nobody wants to sever their relationship with their egos, because they refuse to question their lifelong investment in it. In the end, Jake also stepped out of the proverbial chessboard by making a conscious effort to reverse all his ego telling him to do it. This is seen as the most correct and most basic Formula app. The characters Jake, Zach, Avi, and Sorter (Mark Strong) are seen ultimately rejecting the 'rules' of the ego. Dorothy Macha's character looks to surrender to them.

Themes

Guy Ritchie, during his pregnancy and execution of the film, was interested in the Kabbalah. The film itself is mixed with references to Kabbalistic ideas, symbols and numerological references.

Trinity Zakh (either from Hebrew ????????? Zechariah? Well already remember? Or ??????????????????????????? Qb 'to follow', 'be behind', 'replace', 'dodge', 'attack', ' beyond the limits') and Avi (Hebrew ?????? My father?) is representative of Kabbalistic right, center and energy of the left pillar, respectively. Avi is a rather feminine black man in his physical appearance, outfit, and his behavior. The 'left column' or 'left column' in the Kabbalistic tradition is often associated with 'feminine' and in black. Jake's family name is "Green", and green color is associated with a central column or pillar in Kabbalistic tradition. Zach is a large white man, a giant, dressed up in a very 'masculine' way. Both masculinity and white are associated with the right column or right-pillar energy in the Kabbalistic tradition.

Number 32 appears repeatedly. "The game of chess has many mystical meanings, the Temple of Solomon consists of a chessboard, which has 64 squares and 32 pieces." The elevator that Jake enters near the end of the movie has a button for 32 floors. The dollar bill shown in Jack's money bag has a denomination of 23.

Soundtrack

According to director Guy Ritchie, the music for the film was originally intended to follow the same tone as the previous crime film, Key, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch, in that it was primarily based source (i.e. using non-original music). All traces of the source are all classic. However, during the production process, Ritchie changed his mind and decided to print the majority of the films with original music, leaving only a few small pieces for unnatural music tracks (like a shoot-out restaurant during Lord John's attempt to kill Dorothy Maccha). Ritchie chose Nathaniel Mechaly to score.

The score was done by Mechaly in Mini Moog and other keyboards, with drummer Maxime Garoute.
