Like a bad hand in Texas Hold 'Em, _Treat Me Like Fire_ looks really good at the beginning, begins to fall apart in the middle and craps out by the end.
A man is addicted to gambling and a woman is addicted to the man so we get to watch him use and abuse her for 105 minutes while she keeps running back to him, begging for more - - and this misogyny wasn't even done in an original way.
The tragedy here is that the directing (Marie Monge) was solid and the acting (Tahar Rahim turns in his best performance to date and Stacy Martin continues her ascension) was inspired, yet the poor story should've been burned with fire rather than treated like it.
