About this movie

Ante up for a sure entertainment bet from L.A. Confidential director Curtis Hanson, who co-wrote this charmer with fellow Academy Award winner Eric Roth (Forrest Gump). Pro gambler Huck Cheever (Eric Bana) meets irresistible Billie Offer (Drew Barrymore) and learns to treat love the way he treats cards: trusting his heart instead of his head. He also scrambles to raise the entry fee for the high-roller World Series of Poker, even though - or maybe because - the tournament may pit him against his estranged father (Robert Duvall), a two-time Series winner. MPAA Rating: PG13 (c) 2007 Warner Bros. Entetainment, Inc.

Ratings and reviews

Great acting, good plot and tells of the life's struggle with gambling and trying to mix with a relationship. Poker players fight with this alot. I'm a former poker player, and I can attest. You're so used to bluffing/lying that you mix it with your spouse. Not good, it's a ticking time bomb

Good story, doesn't get slow. I think they tried too hard to insert poker lingo but whatever, still a good movie.

What an excellent poker movie that this Las Vegas movie was like this Las Vegas movie was filmed at the bellagio casino hotel and I love Drew Barrymore
