If you're gonna do CGI, do good CGI or leave it.

Rating: 5/10 (14 August 2008)

First of all, OK film. Nothing sensational, won't watch it again but it was entertaining, mainly because of the blackjack/casino atmosphere though. Acting is adequate, Spacey is a bit one-dimensional.
But what really annoyed me were the really badly animated chip stacks that had no plot value whatsoever. You get that in the opening sequence and then once more later on. I mean if this was some low-budget production where showing chip stacks was an important plot device, you could still just film real chip stacks. It doesn't make sense.
Sort of like 'I Am Legend' where the animated characters all look the same.
If you can't afford good CGI, JUST LET IT GO and find some other way to make the point.
