Why can't the casinos be OK with premiering a movie about card counting and at the same time offer accurate information as to what happens if you get caught counting? I hate it when they show the casinos going to illegal measures to bar someone and they get away with it. Throw in a successful lawsuit win by the counter if that's going to happen!!!!
Do a little researching before jumping to conclusions people. Both movies are based on the TRUE STORY of what MIT college students did back in the 70's. [my dad was a teeneager then and he told me about what happened and how the mod owned the casinos and everything]
To everyone who says that 21 is a ripoff, that is not true. They are both based on the book "Bringing Down the House" (read it, its amazing). Kevin Spacey had the rights to the movie before this came out but filming didnt begin until 2007. They are both movies based off a book so nobody ripped off anyone.
21 totally fucking ripped off this movie. Thats the ONLY reason i dont want to see 21 because they fucking think they can take the story from this great Canadian Indie movie. I'm so mad!
Thanks for this. Been wanting to see this movie again for quite a while but kept missing it on TMN. Now with the remake 21 coming out soon, it is nice to be able to catch the original here.

So far the casinos have abused the law. They have to let a player who's not cheating(such as card counting) cash out before they leave!

Yeah but the MIT Blackjack Team didn't have to deal with the mob after 1985. The mob was defeated in Vegas by then.
