Run-O-The-Mill Gambling Movie

Rating: 4/10 (30 November 2017)

(Flash Review)
If this movie was at Arby's and about to order a meal deal, it wouldn't be quirky or clever enough to get the small size, nor would it be bold or brash enough to go large. It would select the medium option. This movie was full of clichÃ© moments and expected story arcs. The character development was done just professionally yet didn't go anywhere new. The rough plot is a brilliant kid doesn't have enough money to attend Harvard Medical School and rather easily gets persuaded to enter into a Blackjack card counting scheme as justification to help him pay his way. Will he earn enough before or if he gets caught? Who will end up being his hot romantic love interest and who or what will he overlook during his quest for money and thrills? Competent movie that brings nothing new and over-easily justifies various character's decisions.
