Customer Ratings & Reviews

I like Mark, but that's not the only reason I would recommend seeing this movie. All around it has some well acting and unusual impacting scenes. This movie theme makes a strong point as to why some gamble to an extreme....and never get the satisfaction of the win.

Good movie clear bluray. Waiting for American sniper.

Fun, sexy, exciting, action movie.................

Very good movie well acted and a great story line.

Another good movie from Mark like this movie a lot

This film was crazy good. Gambling out of control.

Some one of a letdown but a solid film nonetheless

Mark Wahlberg was good, even though his character was rambling most of the time. In fact, the entire movie seemed to be rambling about nonsense most of the time. However, there was tension and it did have some entertaining scenes.

Guilty, I watch everything Mark Wahlberg is in, nice on the eyes and his movies are great. He is unbelievable how he transforms himself for all the characters he plays. Pretty amazing movies he makes.

This was in the $5 DVD bin, it played as expected. You will either like the movie or not. for me it was not my favorite Wahlberg movie. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2039393/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

This character is the worst gambler and no one with any intelligence would loan him money based on his gambling technique. A movie that rented rather than bought because it will most likely only be watched the one time.

You can never go wrong with a Mark Wahlberg movie, he trains for years for some of his parts and he is such a family man. This movie kept you on the edge of your seat, just the way I like them

Great movie , Fantastic Store I buy all my movies and TVs , Blueray players, DVDs, stereo equipment all from BEST BUY , great prices , tech support and sales people . Love This Store !!!!!!!!!

Mark Wahlberg plays Jim Bennett, a college English professor from a well-to-do family. He has a gambling problem, to the point where he's constantly hitting his mom (Jessica Lange) up for money to pay off his debts

A Story about gambling addiction with Mark Wahlberg is the main character who has issues with gambling. He falls in love with one of the students and proves that love prevails

bought this because it was a Wahlberg film. Not his best movie. It takes a long time to get into the movie and then you understand the mind of the gambler, but we almost didn't watch long enough.

THIS IS A GOOD LESSON MOVIE, WHEN THING'S GET TOUGH THE LOAN BOSS GET'S TOUGHER. THE GAMBLER USES HIS WIT AND COMES UP W/ A PLAN FOR PAYBACK. A MUST WATCH-MOVIE!!!

I watched this movie recently on a AA flight, and as this one is a great movie I decided to buy it. Wahlberg does a great acting on this one! Very entertaining!

A great movie with a great cast and a price that you could not say no and the acting was excellent.

I missed this one when it first came out but was able to get it for $4, so I won big time. Great movie, characters and story
