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.
