When I first saw this film I did not understand some of the Poker talk.....but STILL found the movie to be excellent. That is because it is so much more than a poker film.....as much as it all takes place in the poker world. Now I know poker and understand all the poker talk which is dead on. This is hands down the single best poker film ever made....walk into any casino in Vegas, sit at a poker table and start to quote a line from this movie and half the table will provide the reply or finish the line with you. Even if you don't know a thing about poker it is a great film for the characters, relationships and the story that is told on the human nature level. Simply a great film.

One of the best poker movies of all time. John Malkovic puts in a great performance as a Russian mob boss. This movie defined poker for a new generation and lead to the ESPN poker craze - world series of poker. If you haven't seen this movie you need to get it now. If you have seen it, watch it again it's a classic.

Poker has been used in a number of very good movies, but Rounders is probably the best of them. Matt Damon turns an excellent performance with Martin Landau and John Malkovich supplying strong supporting roles. But, it's Edward Norton that steals every scene he's in. It's hard to believe that he is so convincing as a scrawny hustler in this film the same year he was a terrifying, muscular skinhead in American History X.
The blu-ray's picture quality is pretty good for a catalog release though it seems pretty obvious the contrast was boosted a little too much. Audio quality is front-heavy as you would expect from a mostly dialogue-driven film, but you never have any trouble understanding anyone including Malkovich through his thick Russian accent.

Working in Las Vegas it's easy to relate to the fortunes won and lost story line, that's why it's called gambling, no such thing as a "sure thing". Good picks for the parts played.
