Stometer Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

John Demetriou I really really love this movie. I love the plot twists. I love how Chazz Palminteri (hope I spelled it correct) plays the bad guy. How Mars Callaghan is portraying Johnny. I love the skill show montage they put every now and then. I love the tricks they pull at the pool tables and off the pool tables. I love Christopher Walken and try to follow every movie he ever played a role in, regardless of the movie's quality or ratings. They way the scenes are put together. The flow between them. They way Johnny tricks his girlfriends boss, they way he gets a job selling mobile homes, the ending plot twist, the whole scene with Rico. Everything in this movie is really great. I have seen it so many times I know it by heart. Even Cris Walkens monologue about lions is bloody great (as always). I really urge you to watch this movie. You do not have to like pool to enjoy it.

bearnine Horrible. The dialogue was just bad as well as cheesy. I had to force myself to watch the entire thing. The acting was bad as well... almost as though he was reading everything off a teleprompter. Even walken couldn't save the movie, i'm sure he did everything he could but his lines were just bad. The lines and the formula were so stereotypical, the concept(pool) isn't too mainstream but the structure was. Coldfire gives this movie two BIG THUMBS DOWN! Maybe that explains why i haven't seen any of the actors since. It reminds me of that steven sigal film.... ONLY I COOK FOR THE CAPTAIN *punching and kicking ensues*.p.s. dialogue came up as spelled wrong? wha?!

king_of_bad_intentions Seriously. This entire film was a bunch of incredibly contrived garbage. Alison Eastwood acts like a piece of wood. The writer/director/star of this movie couldn't act or write or direct.Case in point, this ridiculous mini-scene at an RV lot: "I'll bet you (something ridiculous) I can tell you where you got your shoes." "Yeah, where?" "You got your left shoe on your left foot and your right shoe on your right foot." (Cut to next scene, with the con accomplished.) What a load of crap! Anyone who has ever been to New Orleans knows that old line.I believe that this is a bold cinematic misadventure. This film is terrible on every level. I would encourage the filmmaker to cut his losses and go back to barber college or clown school or anything that requires him NOT to be in front of or behind the camera.

bogey21 The movie overall was satisfactory. The only actors that carried the movie were the younger brother, and Walken. The leading actor Mars was not believable at all as this living on the edge billiards con man. Granted, the scenes of them playing pool was cool, and they had great trick shots, but most of the acting was sub par. Even the amazing twist in the end was crap. Throughout the movie Chaz plays this tough guy who doesn't put up with anything. So when Mars takes the shot and misses he still gets another shot? Thats stupid. He had one shot, he missed and should of paid. The whole point of the bet was to make one shot, not to win the game. Plus, after he missed the shot and tried for the other shot, Chaz should have shot him and taken the money. So, overall the movie was poorly cast, poorly acted and there shouldn't be all this hype on a movie that tries to be the "Swingers," or "Rounders," of the pool world.
