really liked this film as i am very interested in gambling and how it works..thought all actors did a great job and I predict Rebecca hall will be a major star real soon.....lots of laughs and the storyline kept me interested although the ending was a tad disappointing.....solid comedy..

having read the book i had no idea how the movie could reproduce Ms.Raymer's wonderful ability to set a scene but Stephen Frears and d.v. Devincentis did a wonderful job...thought Bruce Willis might be miscast as a professional gambler since that is quite the departure from his usual shoot em up roles but he pulled it off quite nicely...

Catherine Zeta Jones and Vince Vaughn were great in their roles and some of the best comedic moments were provided by the legendary actress...thought Wayne Pere and Frank Grillo were impressive in their supporting roles...this is a fun film from start to finish...
