Two For The Money Rocks.

Rating: 10/10 (12 September 2005)

I saw a preview in Hollyweird last week at the Mann's Chinese. This film rocks. Reminded me of Oliver Stone's Wall Street, except it is set in the sports gambling world. A world I knew nothing about, until now. Pacino has two classic moments. The first is in a Gambler's Anonymous meeting and the second is in an airport in Puerto Rico. Matthew McConhaughy has never ever been better. His character Brandon provides him a stellar challenge and he rises to the task. I imagine going toe to toe with Al Pacino had a lot to do with that. Rene Russo is solid and in a surprising way, her character ends up providing the glue that holds the entire film together. Check it out, if you liked Wall Street, The Gambler and even Devils Advocate, this movie is for you. Pacino...Pacino...Pacino.
