Theater Whore: The Gambler


The Gambler 4/10

Meh. This movie The Gambler has a lot of great actors in it, stars an okay one, and somehow manages to be pretty mediocre. Mark Wahlberg is a guy that teachers in college and also has a huge gambling problem. John Goodman, Micheal K. Williams, and Jessica Lange are totally wasted in this. Lange particularly because whenever she is on screen its good. Maybe its the fact that I don't gamble and can't relate to gamblers but all of the gambling parts bored me. The best scenes involved Williams, Lange, and Goodman. The rest is me seeing a guy I don't care about playing games I'm not interested in. This isn't really worth running out to see.
