Saw "Runner Runner" last night

[Reload]

Had to get it out of my system and see the 'advance' screening.

Was weak as the plot played out, but a must-see for all of us. Makes you want to reload a deposit offshore as soon as you are out of theater. And then take a trip to Costa Rica.

Ben Affleck was his usual self - was good casting there at least. Justin Timberlake should just stick to singing - plenty of others would have done better.

A few hotties in it, but not much skin revealed. Was hoping for more there.

If only it was about sportsbetting guys instead of poker

still looks like a good movie

I'll wait for it to get to Redbox

Yeah they mentioned sports a little, but it was mostly poker. They got into affiliate deals, rakeback, kickbacks to officials, etc.

When they say "based on true events", was it the Ultimate Bet/Absolute Poker debacle or the Full Tilt debacle?

They mentioned Ultimate Bet by name at least once. Was where the hole cards were getting picked up.

But the cheating part of the plot ended up being pretty minimal. Was more about Timberlake's character being sucked into Affleck's regime and set up to be a fall guy.

Redbox gets it one moth after the video chains do

Yeah that was the UB/Absolute poker scandal.Figures Affleck made a movie about it since he was one of the guys that got money stolen from him while playing on there.

Bs movie if u watched it for a poker perspective. Some interesting insights into the CR gaming industy though.

Affleck was great... timberlake is not an actor despite how hard he tries. Gemma is a hot slut.

If movie industry actually put out anything worth seeing I'd go thinking about going to see gravity or rush...runner runner is getting terrible reviews I don't support shitty movies redbox or dish ppv on this one may even wait until it hit hbo or showtime

Having seen both, Rush is definitely way better than this movie
