Movie Info

"Nine Queens" is the story of two small-time swindlers, Juan (Gastón Pauls) and Marcos (Ricardo Darín), who team up after meeting in a convenience store and become involved in a half million-dollar deal. As the deceptions and duplicity mount, it becomes more and more difficult to figure out who is conning whom, and we begin to ask ourselves, "Who isn't a thief?"

Audience Reviews for Nine Queens

I really felt something for this gang of swindlers. The dialogue is sharp and the action has a nice pace to it. Good job!

This rating is for the movie without the silly, unbelievable ending.

Guess I'm the only one here but I think the twist is dumb & almost ruins the entire movie
