Smokin' Aces (2006)

This week the Dudes dissect the crazy-busy crime caper Smokin' Aces (2006) directed by Joe Carnahan and starring Ryan Renyolds, Ray Liotta, Jeremy Piven, Chris Pine, Andy Garcia, Alicia Keys, Common... the list goes on! Saanje didn't watch the movie so it was up to Mike and Ruari to explain the plot and boy, did it take some doing.

This is a spoilercast and each episode is full spoilers.
