The know-how of acting...

Rating: 8/10 (15 May 2006)

...ok.. the story ain't that good, but the actors just lift the movie to a higher level:
Pacino at his best and an outstanding McConaughey makes this movie totally worth of seeing...
And still D.J. Caruso does an excellent job with the camera, along with the screenplay man, Dan Gilroy, how made some (a lot of) awesome dialogs....
An interesting this is that the film captures some of the real spirit of competitions ( not sports, it's totally different), with all the pressure, adrenaline and pain that it has.
