Rounders

Rounders

There are two Chinese translation names, one is "The King of Gamblers" and the other is "Genius Game". The former's name is too big, which is a bit eye-catching. The latter is a bit off topic, there is no genius, and it is not a game. Although this film is relatively compact, it is not so arrogant, it just tells the stories of some bad gamblers.

Before Matt Damon played The Bourne, he played a lot of smart geniuses. I have always thought that his appearance is of that kind of stupid root type, no matter how stupid he looks, but he has created so many talented characters, and he is really good at it.

Edward Norton plays a shameless, hopeless, incorrigible gambler in this film, which is disgusting, and the character setting is a bit sloppy at the end.

Rounders short comments

    Surprisingly, the whole movie seems to be playing cards all the time, but the story told has nothing to do with playing cards. Instead, it has been telling people that some people are born for some things, and few people will find out, face it, and stick to it. There is no need for bright and dark emotional lines, and even the brotherhood thought to be the main line is just a favor to pull back the plot and throw it away. The teaching of a professor to fish is the core.

    Watching this kind of movie about gambling is so hard to understand for someone like me who can’t play cards.

Rounders quotes

  • Professor Petrovsky: [sitting across from each other in a bar] I know a magician doesn't reveal his secrets

    Mike McDermott: I'm not a magician

    Professor Petrovsky: If it wasn't "magic", how did you know what everyone held?

    Mike McDermott: It's a combination of things: I was watching when the cards came out, that's just an old habit with me, it's like breathing

    Professor Petrovsky: Watch the cards?

    Mike McDermott: I watch the cards but I also watch the player react to the cards. That's how I knew the DA made his two pair and judge Kaplan missed the flush, I was watching their eyes when they checked their river cards, their faces tell you everything

    Professor Petrovsky: [Confused] you watch the man? I never knew you had to calculate so much in cards

    Mike McDermott: here's some advice, just play premium hands, you only start with jacks or better if its good enough to call you've also got to be in there raising, tight but aggressive and I do mean aggressive, you've got to think of it as a war

    Professor Petrovsky: [Jokingly] you're officially never invited to our game again

    Mike McDermott: I don't blame you, put a guy like me in that game, cards don't even matter I'll play it blind

  • Mike McDermott: [sitting across from each other in a bar] You have a respectable profession

    Professor Petrovsky: Not to my family my parents were devastated, destroyed by my decision my father sent me away to New York to live with distant cousins I eventually found my place, my life's work

    Mike McDermott: What then?

    Professor Petrovsky: I amerced myself fully, I studied everything I could about the law I felt deeply inside that it was what I was born to do

    Mike McDermott: Did your parents get over it?

    Professor Petrovsky: No, I always hoped that I would find some way to change their mind, but they were inconsolable, my father never spoke to me again
