Cartada De Risco

Wow!!!! Saw this movie on cable and it was one of the best things ever. It's so bad that it's good, I couldn't stop watching. The plot is everywhere, they solve problems that shouldn't even be in the movie. The acting is like a bad made for TV movie. Even the camera angles were below that of a direct to VHS movie, yeah not even good enough to get a DVD release. It's classified as a drama by my cable channel but I was holding my sides laughing constantly.

If you like poker at all or even have watched it on TV, I hope you check this movie out cause it will be one of the funniest things you'll watch in a while.

I enjoyed this movie from beginning to end. If your a guy or girl who likes Vegas and the unexpected result every time a card is flipped over then I recommend picking up some Chinese food and beer and sitting down with this flick .Anyone who loved movies like Scorsese's CASINO should enjoy this genre, even though this film deals more with a father/daughter relationship and being there for a loved one rather than the typical mob Vegas..Madson's emotional performance with his kid almost had me in tears in the end...I also would keep a sharp eye out for this new director Vallelonga..................................I give it a full boat or at least 3 aces............Private

Firstly, all the good reviews here, you know the 10/10ers are written by reviewers who have only one movie reviewed. A sure sign of something wrong - pure flack.

This isn't horrible: but it really is a waste. The acting above all stinks...

The writing is fine except when you really want it to be original it is horribly clichéd

The film is horribly slushy. And the hospital subplot is entirely unnecessary.

If I ever meet the person responsible for the music I will definitely be asking for my money back; just intrusive, inappropriate and all round yucky...

It would have been so much better to concentrate on the classroom and the poker room. It has a good premise and ruins it by turning it into a soppy soap opera...

Looks and feels like a made for TV special in every respect. Watchable, barely.

I have to agree with another writer on here when he/she says "were you watching the same film" to the people who wrote the positive reviews, This film is bad, from beginning to end, there are no redeeming features whatsoever, the script, the direction. The acting was abysmal, the lead actress Miss Swain, well her "acting" was like watching paint dry slowly, and i can only assume the reason why Mr Madson & Gosset were there is for the money. The strange thing is, there are some writers on here comparing this to "Casino" and there is even mention of "The Godfather, when in reality this film should not be spoke of in the same breath as those. There are a couple of nice things to say about the film, 1) when the credits roll, and 2) the actress "Avrielle Corti", who plays young Ace,deserves to be the only one to get some credit for her acting. You can decide for yourselves, either to watch this, or give it a miss, all i can say is You have been warned, stay well !

I play a good bit of poker, but even if I did not I would be very disappointed in wasting my time watching this movie. It has absolutely nothing to do with real odds, or anything to do with poker. Acting is atrocious, the representation of poker is astoundingly bad, and every part of the movie absolutely sucks. "All In' has as much to do with poker and actual movie quality acting as a fart has to do with perfume, the movie is terrible....Don't ever, ever, ever watch it. For one, there are people out there that could not even rig a deck for the sake of the plot's horrible progression if they had all day and could arrange the cards without anyone looking, for two, the movie sucks, but I think said that already. I know most movies always have someone saying "worst movie ever", but this truly is the WORST MOVIE EVER MADE!
