They need to be making another Stu Ungar movie, with a much bigger budget, and with an actor that actually resembles the the Man that the friggin' movie is about.
i have never seen such a miscast, they should have scotty nguyen playing this part (without the mullet that is) and then you have the looks & charisma & poker cred.
Michael Imperioli is a great actor but this was an average film. The screenplay didn't really capture what Stu Ungar was about and didn't allow Michael to even touch upon the mad genius he undoubtedly was.
They should have made the book about Stuey "One Of A Kind" into a movie, not High Roller. That would have won some acadamy awards. This was very low budget and not very accurate, but as a fan of Stuey, I have seen it 6 times. It does get better each time, but you have to be a Stuey/poker fan to enjoy it. They wanted Johnny Depp for "One Of A Kind" back in 2005, who would have rocked the part. RIP Stu.
@1skullduggery Why didn't Ungar sit down at the table when Henry and Tommy and Jimmy were playing cards, instead of humping drinks to them and getting his foot shot?
@JohnLeeMD lol...you're right...good point. next thing you know he's gonna be coming in here with one of them walker's. are you looking for some sympathy, sweety? (by the way, where ARE the shovels)?
are you kidding me? THIS GUY? stu ungar had 10 x the charisma this guy has, stu was a rockstar. sopranos guy number 3 cant do him justice. what a waste
@ic069 sonny why don't you take your little fairy tales somewhere else and go give you idol from sopranos a blowjob you fucking little bitch, and wipe your dads kum off your face before you make another fake account to come here and give your own comment a thumbs up, fucking ugly cocksucking homo
@ic069 I saw your picture man, are you serious? I don't even know whether to tell you what an ugly dirty cocksucking faggot you are or to give you a phone number to a clinic for abused children. seriously stop wasting people's time with your dickbreath and do what you do best, sucking cock
i'm shocked they took this guy to play stu ungar. I know it's a movie and the actor doesn't have to match the look 100 % but come on, he's as far away from stu ungar as you can go
Unfortunately this movie is really crap. The cast is terrible, The actor never really looks like Stu and way too many important details are missing! There is no word about the death of his "son" Richie, and the genius of his card play isn't really visualized. They tried to push a big story into a small movie. Pls read the book "one of a kind" and you'll know what I am talking about.
can somebuddy send me a link for fulll movie online? i m searching for this movie for weeks and i cant find it online! plzz nelp!
