This movie has all the ingredients of a good,or maybe even great film but somehow comes up short.
It is uninspired in some spots and overdone in others. Sometimes it seems like the actors are just going through the motions,like a high-school play. At times it can even seem silly.
Don't get me wrong,it is not a terrible film-it just isn't that good for any number of reasons,not the least of it a weak,cliche filled script. Nobody
in real-life gets to jump into a rich successful life by rolling dice,for heaven's sake.
Watch it on a rainy day with the mindset of being entertained and you likely will be.
