I love sports gambling. It’s a world unfamiliar with and one I enjoy dabbling in, legally, from time to time. This was a movie that I thought would be right up my alley with a few well-known actors and a premise I could get behind. My biggest Takeaway from this movie is, the acting was crap. I could go on for days about how everyone mailed in this role, the performances were flat and full of bluster, but I only have so many characters in this review. The very beginning of this film, the intro, was just hot garbage that had no business being in it. Both a young Brendan Lang and the college football version. We’re just hilarious and not needed. The best part was the early stages when he hooks up with Pacino’s character to get their little business going. Halfway through the movie become almost unwatchable. A combination of bad story, bad acting, they had poor decisions at every part of the filmmaking process. There’s unresolved storylines, storylines that don’t make sense, and just a general disregard for flow, performance, and the audience Bottom line is, unless you are a sports gambling junkie and need your fix, I’d pass on this one.
