One For The $$$, Two For The No Show!!!

Rating: 2/10 (11 October 2005)

Every once in a while a movie comes along that you feel should have never been made or at least, if they're going to make it, come up with a better story than this. Anyone whose ever gambled knows that there are no, etched in stone, sure things when it comes to betting on football. This movie is a total farce. Why? Because it fails to be honest about the real world of gamblers. I sure had high hopes for this flick considering the mega cast. To to bad all that talent directed toward a dismal story.Frankly, I just didn't care if they won or lost in the end. Better writing and or something to really draw us in would have maybe made this somewhat worthy but alas, not today. Mathew, in the beginning, got me going with some decent character development then it just went flat.
