In the billiard room that has been in business for many years, Eddie (Paul Newman) has discovered a high-quality billiard seed-Vincent (Tom Cruise). Vincent concealed Eddie's demeanor on the billiard table, making Eddie determined to accept him as his apprentice and help him show off his skills in the billiard career. So Eddie, Vincent and Vincent's girlfriend went to Atlantic City to participate in the competition.
Along the way, Vincent participated in many small competitions. Although there were constant differences between him and Eddie, he also won a lot of money back. At the same time, Eddie's inner love for billiards was reawakened in the process of cultivating Vincent. He picked up the cue again, but unexpectedly failed. The lost Eddie decided to leave Vincent and regain his glory by practicing hard alone. When the hesitant Eddie returned to the Atlantic arena, he found that Vincent had become his opponent.
At this time, Vincent's pursuit of money has far exceeded the billiard itself. The match between Eddie and Vincent became a battle of dignity and money.

    The story is not well laid out, and the story turns abruptly. The idea of ​​the two protagonists is exchanged and the central idea of ​​the film is complete without any signs. It can't be expressed well at all, but it is really difficult to find an actor who can act like Paul Newman.

    When I saw the middle, I was thinking, who is such an awesome old man. Such superb acting skills should at least have the title of actor. I checked it out, and I almost blinded my dog. Paul Newman, I'm going to slap me. It's really ageing. Also, why do you keep wearing glasses in the film and refuse to take them off! ! ! Old man, you still have to pretend to be cool! ! !
