which do you like better... ?

reply

there is absolutely no contest. Rounders is a 10x better movie in every way.

This movie tried way too hard to be a relevant poker movie.... Rounders IS a relevant poker movie, and a damn good one

I didnt like how dumbed-down this movie was. I understand that it caters to the masses who are not all that familiar with poker, but come on, some of the scenes with L.C. who is supposed to be a great player, are ridiculous, the way he plays his hands, and then tries to justify it with some *beep* comment.
Another thing that p1ssed me off was when he slowrolled the lady on the final table with his straight flush. If you have a straight flush, just turn it over first damnit. If he did that *beep* to me, i'd want to bitchslap that mofo.

Paper... snow.... A GHOST!!

Rounders was a good film the only thing the matter with that was the raising of the blinds 25/50 raising to a 1000 - but thats just the poker player in me.

This film was rubbish only thing I found interesting was how white Barry Greenstein looked in it.

Rounders....no comparison...and then the was the original..The Gambler...a great film..see it if you have not..

Actually, I would consider The Cincinnati Kid to be the original...and the best of the three, by far.
