A Grand Don't Come For Free
The Poker Terms movie review department gives the movie mixed reviews overall.
Credit is due to the film for trying something new and for being a relatively acceptable way to kill 1:44 on Cable TV. But too many of the gags came off as forced, and even the super-talented cast couldn't make the thing gel.
Here's the trailer from The Grand:
