21 (2008)

Ben Campbell: “Plus 13. The count. It's plus 13.”

21 is a film starring Jim Sturgess, Kevin Spacey, Kate Bosworth, Aaron Yoo, Liza Lapira, and Jacob Pitts, directed by Robert Luketic. This film is about six Massachusetts Institute of Technology students who mastered card counting and took over Vegas, winning millions of dollars. I was really amazed throughout watching the film. The odds of winning in gambling is really small which makes the film really thrilling to watch. Every time a student wins, a love the camera works--the close up, faster speed--to put emphasis to some elements. After watching the film, I really wanted to learn how they do that. I'm not into gambling but, it's really interesting to watch. I want to know how it feels like to win millions of dollars in Vegas.
