Dont know anything else besides 21. Im a sci-fi movie fan and this isnt my type but i get hooked with this movie. It provides strategies and tells us even poker is a game of luck, we can still manipulate the game by knowing the probabilities of any cards. The only talent you need to have is memorization and mathematics.

I have seen many movies related to gambling and sports in my local language and also many historical films too which may not be directly involving money but still gambling with other valuable things they have.In hollywood I like casino royale.

Boiler Room is perfect example for combination of psychology and odds even though movie is about challenge of traders. I remember well one part from movie that guys talk about how to beat system with logical steps. Long story short, greed is definition about  psychological cause of addiction which drains our pockets. Exclusions happen,but i doubt it in online games. In my opinion there is somehow correlation between skills and zero risk events that happens rarely in gambling.

That’s a best gambling movie for me actually, its tell things about the poker though its quiet exaggerated but I feel entertained watching that one. Poker is indeed a game of luck and some strategies will work on this only if you are good enough and you already experience a lot situation in poker.

Never heard that movie, but locally we have some good movies where tackles more about the illegal gambling that is really happening in my country, its Mater Dolorosa and its good one for me. This reminds me that being greed in gambling will just bring you to a bad place, which can ruin everything.

the best gambling movie is Casino (1995), scored 8.2 on imdb. It is a tale of greed, deception, money, power, and murder occur between two best friends: a mafia enforcer and a casino executive, compete against each other over a gambling empire, and over a fast living and fast loving socialite.

There are many others worth of your precious time, so the list should be: Rounders (1998), The Sting (1973), Ocean's Eleven (2001), High Roller: The Stu Ungar Story  (2003), The Cincinnati Kid (1965), Maverick (1994), 21 (2008), Owning Mahowny (2003), A big Hand For a little lady (1966)...

For my own recommendation is ocean eleven (2001), on the other hand there are actions and also smell of gambling. there was a lot of
action on how to cheat houses at the casino, it was very tense and entertaining you know.

My favorite gambling movie is now you see me 1 and 2 because they show a great scheme to win and steal a lot of money inside a casino. In the movie that you have mention what is it all about ?

Well. The movie 21 is all about a college students that are great in math and one of those student is Ben Campbell who accepted in Harvard University, but he cannot afford the $300,000 tuition, so one of his teachers taught them about the gambling game of blackjack and play inside a casino for them to win a million dollars of money. At the climax of the movie, they all caught by the security because they all had been suspected by all of their actions.

21 is my only gambling movie that I want to watch all over again. Its really amazing to see gamblers playing well, anyway its a just a movie of course. Aside from this, I don’t know any movies about gambling but we also have some local movies but I think its just a waste of time and money.

"21" is my favorite gambling movie I can think of at the moment. They are a team of card counters led by an MIT student who wants study medicine. He is recruited by his math professor and goes to "play" in Vegas with the team until they are busted.

Justine Timberlake's Movie about their life connected to a time. They won't die in old age unless someone kill them or the time on their wrist reach zero. When he got into the elite clubs, he gamble his remaining time of his life knowing it could lead to his instant death. I like that part and somehow relate it to our current situation where we always gamble with time.

There are a lot of movies with gambling themes, my favourite is the Revolver movie where the main character enters in a very dangerous gambling game where he risk to even be left dead. There are some pretty good actors in it, with Jason Statham being the main character. I suggest you to see it in case you haven't already. For other good gambling movies just check the IMDB website database.



I agree that is true a lot of movies related in the gambling one of the best example is the of james bond the tittle is casino royale and do not be offend I would like to know if I'm not wrong their have some old thread same  topic.

I don't remember the name of that movie,but it was completely based on the gambling.The actor has the super power to predict the future so he knows that what is going to happen so he can be a millionaire soon.Butt he don't do these kind of activities but the people blackmail him to make money for them in gambling by using his super power the climax will be how he get away from those people.Anyone remember the name of that movie?

Was it Next? The star is Nicholas Cage.
I hope I got it right cause I loved that movie and watched i5 for a lot of times.

Oceans 12 and 1e also have some gambling scenes although it is more of thievery.
How about 21? Also a good film about blackjack which is studied on how to trick the game.

The best gambling movie for me, and compose of good characters. I'm currently looking for this movie so I can watch it again because I know it can also relieve the stress in me. I hope to have a more updated gambling movies that will tackle about the addiction and how they can survive on that, it will probably become a box office.

My favorite gambling films are films about Ocean's friends. These are great movies, I love to watch them.
I also like all the movies of this genre.
