An actor's movie

American gambling movies don't want to be as fancy and magical as Hong Kong. Even if they come out, they don't show it at all. The level of excitement is lower. It is too magical to guess the cards only by looking at the expressions of the opponents. This film tells the story of pursuing our own ideals. Although gambling is not so glorious for us, Americans have always had such a tradition of pursuing ideals, not to mention that the gambling in it is still very regular.
The actors are good, or they are really not worth seeing. But the heroine's role is less, which is a pity.

Rounders quotes

  • Worm: [to Roman and Maurice, chastising them for deliberately speaking Russian to each other while playing poker] You wanna see the seventh card, stop speaking fucking sputnik! I'm sure you guys were talking about Pierogies and snow but let's cut that out.

  • Worm: [Pretending to be a sore loser at the college fraternity game] Like my uncle Les used to say "When the money is gone, it's time to move on". So enjoy it, you secret handshaking assholes.
