About this movie

When Princeton grad student Richie Furst (Justin Timberlake) believes he's been swindled by an online poker site, he heads to Costa Rica to confront gambling tycoon Ivan Block (Ben Affleck), the man he thinks is responsible. But Richie will soon face the ultimate power play as he finds himself caught between Block's promises of unlimited wealth and the zealous FBI agent trying to bring him down.

Ratings and reviews

If you're an A-Team fan then you'll understand what I mean when I say "I love it when a plan comes together" in reference to this movie. The plot is well thought out and it finally beats the storyline issue that many movies face with the balance of good and bad. It's a story you'll enjoy from beginning to end. Believe me, this movie does not disappoint.

A lot worse than I expected. Movie felt very compressed like it needed another 30 minutes or so for plot and character development. 5 minutes in JT is a broke Princeton student and then 15 minutes later he is a wealthy hanging out with millionaires on a yacht. I don't recommend spending money on this.

Well played, visually impressive, good score, exceptional script and casting. Not a Afleck fan but was pleased with his performance. Actually took the bite out of him playing batman next go round (Hopefully better than he did Daredevil)
