Owning Mahowny
Aroview: Phillip Seymour Hoffman stars in this fact-based story of a Toronto bank manager who became legendary for gambling away millions of his clients’ money in American casinos in the early 1980s.
Fans of Hoffman will appreciate another dedicated performance, though this straight-ahead drama never breaks out beyond the somewhat predictable facts associated with gambling addiction and casino exploitation.

3 stars (Good Enough) The quality cast are not really challenged by the screenplay. Hoffman looks like Hoffman and Hurt looks like Hurt but Minnie Driver doesn't look like Minnie Driver and maybe, therefore, she has the most challenging role - which she does very well. ~Tubbs
