This story has a real prototype, that is, a group of college teachers and students use their mathematical talents to play blackjack gambling - some people are said to have made a lot of money, and some people have written books and published them. However, after Hollywood changed it, adding love, trust, morality and other condiments, presumably the real story will be very boring. The teacher played by Kevin Spacey is still so charming and so wise, which makes the other handsome boys and beauties extraordinarily young. The scenes of his training and gambling in the casino are also very good (the probability of three doors in the film is quite interesting, which has caused many fans to discuss), but it is a pity that the film only stays on the surface of a good-looking gambling film and does not go into depth. unfolds, and the cliché of the hero returning to school at the end feels even more tedious.
BTW: Three stars for the movie, the extra one is for Kevin Spacey.

[Ben does quick math at his job on two outfits for a man and his wife]
Husband: What's this gonna run us?
Ben Campbell: Oh, well, uh, let's see, the belt's $49.95, minus 15%. The jacket's $589,99. The pants, $285,99, minus 10% on both. Unfortunately, the shirt's not on sale, but I can knock off 5% from the $69,99. The shoes were just marked down from $155, so you're looking at $1,042.68.
Ben Campbell: [the couple stare at Ben's adding abilities as he replies] I'm really good with numbers.
Husband: Yeah.
Wife: I guess so.

[Ben see's Jill at his place of work shopping for a tie]
Jill Taylor: [Jill holds one up to Ben] This one's nice.
Ben Campbell: Yeah. Oh, yeah. This one has actually been treated with our patented Nano-Tex fabric protection, you know, to repel all liquids and stains.
Jill Taylor: Well, that's really functional.
Ben Campbell: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty functional.
Jill Taylor: [Jill wraps the tie around Ben's neck] Face me. Stay still.
Jill Taylor: [Jill whispers to Ben] Despite being tempted by the Nano-Tex repellant, I'm actually not here for a tie, Ben. I came to see you.
