21-Making Money with Blackjack

"Where on Earth am I supposed to come up with $300,000 for school?" Could you even imagine being a college kid and having to face that reality? You're one of the brighest minds at M.I.T., but you can't afford to go there. Such is the premise of the new movie "21". I have to say I'm psyched to see this film. First of all, I love BlackJack. Secondly, Kevin Spacey stars in it, so you know the acting will be top notch.

Based on what I've seen from the previews, Spacey teaches a group of college kids a system to beat the casinos by playing BlackJack or 21. It's based on a true story, so it should be cool. I usually dig films that have a base in reality.

I'm anxious to see what system he teaches them. From the looks of things, it seems card counting is the trick. How cool would it be to be able to walk into a casino and just know you're going to be making money with BlackJack or 21? You'd have the confidence of a Greek god walking into the bright lights, hearing all the bells and whistles and just know that tonight is your night.

No more stressing over how to pay this bill or that payment---all your problems are solved because you have a great, unbeatable system.

Check out the movie and tell me what you thought of it. I'd love to hear your opinions.
