    En espanol

    La pelicula esta basada a jovenes guapos e inteligentes, matematicos al fin, donde ellos tienen la capacidad de saber cuales cartas faltan y al mismo tiempo ganar mucho dinero en la Vegas, pero se tropiecen con hobe que tambien se hizo rico porque conoce el formato atravez de un profesor de una universidad, la pelicula tiene un poco de suspenso,veanla.

    Loved it.

    by trr0546

    I thought this was what movies are suppose to be about. A story you can follow, get involved in, care about the characters, and in the end you have learned something. I was entertained the entire way through, and the cast is great. If you want to go to a movie, enjoy your time there, and feel like you got your money's worth, this is one you can count on to deliver.

    i realy liked this movie!

    21 was awsome! it was verry fast paced and kept you interested. Especially living in Boston i loved that they shot on location and had Boston landmarks in it. The card playing was realistic and the acting was verry good. And Kevin Spacey was great as usual. B+.
