New poker movie?

Saw some ad flash by my tv whilst playing online -- new movie with Woody Harrelson and cameos by pros?

Name?

  • I think it is called

    "The Grand"
  • when is it supposed to come out?

    and on a relatively off topic note.. the movie 21 looks good..

    anyone else seen the ads?
  • The Grand and it looks pretty funny. I think it comes out these Friday. I heard its like Kingpin but about Poker. Considering I liked Kingpin I am going to go see this. 21 is a knock off of the Last Casino. The Last Casino is a blackjack movie that is Canadian. It is really good and was on TMN for awhile.
  • yeah 21 looks exactly the same as the last casino which was average
  • I think 21 is based on the book "Bringing Down the House" by Ben Mezrich. It's quite good.

    From what I've seen the only thing that remotely resembles Bringing Down the House is that they are MIT students on a card counting team. ;)

    I'll wait for the torrent.

    That's the name of it... I knew it reminded me of something I'd already seen. Either way though, I'll probably check it out as it looks pretty cool.
  • Comes out Apr 4th, see here.. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0427998/
  • I looked at the trailer online for The Grand -- looks pretty crappy, torrent time.
  • Bringing down the house is a fantastic read. Hopefully the movie will do it at least some justice, as it was a really good insight into things which I imagine go on to this day.
  • I was thinking the same thing as Graham. I was mad when i saw the trailer for 21. It's ripping off the Canadian film.
  • i hope it will be good, but i doubt it will compete with rounders..
