Overview
Ben Campbell is a young, highly intelligent student at M.I.T. who strives to succeed. Wanting a scholarship to transfer to Harvard School of Medicine to become a doctor, Ben learns that he cannot afford the $300,000 tuition as he comes from a poor, working-class background. But one evening, Ben is introduced by his unorthodox math professor to a small but secretive club of five students, Jill, Choi, Kianna, and Fisher, who are being trained by Professor Rosa to count cards at blackjack.

Viewing Notes
It’s Sunday and I already have a “shit movie of the week”! how sad… but the honor goes to 21, in what could’ve been… should’ve been a much better film. IMO, had they either made a documentary of the true story or adhered to it in the film adaptation, it probably would have been better. as it was, it was a terrible ham-fisted hollywood packaged turd. Kevin Spacey needs a new agent. Fuck this movie.
