21
A smart MIT student Ben Campbell (Jim Sturgess) needs financial aid to attend Harvard med school. His professor (Kevin Spacey) dangles a pretty girl (Kate Bosworth) to get Ben to join a team of slick card counters in this gambling/greed themed thriller based on a true story. It is a high stakes game that takes you from a Boston Asian gambling den to the big time casinos in Las Vegas. It has a colorful cast of supporting characters and a menacing casino security enforcer (Laurence Fishburne). Alien liked the story a lot. You will feel the adrenalin rush when they win big and when their house of cards starts to fall down and crumble. The movie has a great ending, which Alien can’t reveal because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Take a gamble, go see “21”. It is a winner.
Alien gives it 3 ½ “winner, winner, chicken dinner” stars out of 4.
