Filmcritic.com - 6/10 by Christopher NullThink of it as sitting on a Jack-eight. Off suit.
User Review - 10/10 by Dan HIf there is any way to loose its only done with style by one of the most smartest people on the planet. A legend for loosers all over the world. I dont think that micheal caught all of Stueys off the wall features and behaviors but i dont think any actor on this planet could come any closer. He was one of a kind. My heart goes out to family and friends. I was in vegas that last day in 1997. I was just around the corner. Too young to gamble though. I went to get some stuff from the old strip though.
User Review - 8/10 by Pete EThe true story of Stu Ungar, one of the greatest poker players to ever live.
User Review - 8/10 by Brody MDistributed by New Line Cinema in 2003, the film chronicles the life and death of Stu "The Kid" Ungar, a famous and famously self-destructive champion poker player. It stars The Sopranos Michael Imperioli. The filmmaker, 'A. W. "Tony" Vidmer is a recreational poker player and became interested in Stu Ungar, reading all the information he could find on the poker icon's life. Vidmer has gone on to create his own independent film festival, the Fylmz Festival. Inspired by difficulties in finding distribution for this film, Vidmer's festival awards $100,000 and distribution to the Best Feature Film at a live festival in Nashville, Tennessee USA. This movie needs to be added to my list with a scene shot in Valley of Fire State Park outside Las Vegas.

User Review - 6/10 by Aaron PThink of it as sitting on a Queen-ten. Off suit.
User Review - 6/10 by Private UI can relate to this movie on so many levels.
User Review - 6/10 by Rebecca NEnjoyed this movie...the life of a gambler...crazy stuff
User Review - 6/10 by Anne LI'm still not getting the psychological explanation of why he developed that personality... so not exactly satisfied with this biography really. So all in all a bit superficial, when I think that guy certainly had many talents not shown much in the film. Apparently his observation skills were brilliant and that doesn'[t show *that* much in that film.
