Most likely will be terrible. Ryan Reynolds seems so out of place.

Got to admit - it does look pretty decent. Better than I anticipated anyway.

I can't spot that trailer's tell. Oh wait, I can. It has one poker player saying to another, "I can't spot your tell."

I agree. Other guy seems to be nailing it.

Like all trailers, the movie is like duh I dunno until showtime. It could go either way on goodness.

I seem to recall the movie getting great reviews at several festivals almost a year ago, but I couldn't understand why it wasn't getting a real theatrical release.

Because none of the main characters are wearing tights or a cape.

I have a link that may be of interest to anybody curious about the film. It is a review by a friend, a poker player, who works the Film Festival circuit. He watched it at Sundance earlier in the year and submitted his thoughts shortly after.

That said, I do not want to be in violation of the rules here. Mods, this is a guest post on my personal blog. I know we are not supposed to link to personal sites.

This seems pertinent to the conversation but if not deemed worthy then understood.

I think it is a limited release, which I think usually means a small number of theaters in NY and LA. But it sounds like it will be on demand the same time!

I thought (hoped) the same thing, a grittier version. Given the names I was wondering if that was supposed to be obvious. Anyway, this looks very promising.
