This one is about a group of MIT students under the guidance of a math professor using probability statistics to form a cooperative counting system for playing blackjack.

I thought this one was kind of uninspired and predictable, and used a lot of cliche'd plot turns. Nothing new, and I thought that Spacey and Fishburne were largely wasted here. it's not a bad movie, but it's nothing more than a timekiller.

this one could have been so much better. i find it funny that the lead was cast w/ a caucasion while the true life character was asian. not a great movie. grade: C
