七骗

哈兰在一场赌马中输掉一大笔钱。为了偿还债务，哈兰和年轻美丽的菲奥娜合伙行骗。行动成功后，身负巨债的桑尼找上门来，但三人的首次合作却以失败告终，并且菲奥娜还落入对方手。但事实上这一切都是桑尼和菲奥娜事先安排好的，委托人、女警察都是和他们一伙的。这下哈兰彷佛陷入一张迷网，和菲奥娜的关系，老板的掌控，情报的真伪，每解开一道迷却只意味着入新的圈套里。而菲奥娜一伙内部也不平稳，各自都想在交易中获得尽可能多的利益。另外，桑尼的债主，哈兰的老板也各有各的心计。互相牵扯的几拨人最后终于相会，交锋中上演了一出精彩的连环戏。

该片的各种技术手法手段的运用可谓是独巨匠心，典型而不觉老套，这是因为各种手法手段在导演手中处理的恰倒好处。发挥的淋漓尽致。如汽车急驰而过画面和声音的升格技术，瞬间把人带入紧张的气愤，当然影片所要表达的意思也让人身临其境地理解了，这也是为什么在这么短的时间内可以让观众理解这部影片的关键所在，绝佳的艺术表现手法加上奇特的技术让整个影片达到了"精湛"的效果。运用象征意义极强的特写镜头来转场也是该片不可忽视的一大亮点，蒙太奇的充分利用加上拍摄目的性强的特点使得整个影片在叙述上的时间大大缩短，最终使得"精"字得以完美展现出来。
