Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Suit and Tie has done it again
Justin Timberlake is the man! While his character was a little weak, he did the best he could do and Affleck as the villain was pretty believable and well done. The plot and idea was interesting but the lack of supporting cast and accelerated plot line was the weak part of this movie. However, it was still an entertaining, smart, and thrilling movie about online poker and the underlying workings of online gambling. That makes you think about how and if it really works that way.
Overall the movie is decent while not having an overly original plot and all. The acting is pretty decent, as much as I hate to say it, Justin Timberlake has turned out to be a reasonably decent actor... no Oscar winner of course but seems to pick out roles that suit him well. Not everyone will want to run out and buy this movie but I'd suggest at least renting it and giving it a try.
Althought the movie was lengthy it was well worth it. Every detail used was needed. The plot was great and I'm sure if any college student had the chance to do that and make millions they would , but without knowing the consequences. The resolution to the movie is the best! Justin Timberlake was perfect for the part.
