Maarten Swaan has flashes, but it wobbles
7.5/10 · Production
Maarten Swaan was the thing I kept watching in Jackpot (2026). There is a nice lived-in quality to it, nothing too forced. A couple of tiny timing choices really stuck with me. It is the kind of performance that quietly makes the movie sturdier. The small reactions do a lot of the heavy lifting. I bought the character pretty quickly, which is not always easy in this kind of film. That is the part I kept thinking about after the movie ended.
