Here's my review for...

21

Ok, so while on vacation the movies really sucked that came out.  So I decided to get a pay per view movie.  No, not that kind.  At least I'm not writing about that one.  I got the movie 21.  This is a movie about some geeks that go to M.I.T. and get involved with a professor that is into counting cards in Vegas.  So it sounded pretty good, but like only Hollywood could do, they made this movie boring and nerdy.  The movie is based on a true story that happened, I'm sure Vegas is really happy to hear that they are showing people how to cheat in their casino's.  Oh wait, that's right they aren't just people they are super brains that count cards faster than Rainman.  I don't know how many movies I've seen about counting cards, but here's a favor I ask of Hollywood.  SLOW DOWN, I WANT TO LEARN!!!!!!!!!!!  If they wanted to make real money on the movie, in the DVD they would break it down and show you how to do it.  That would be an AWESOME movie.  But of course they don't.  Plus in the movie they keep going back to the same place ALL the damn time.  How smart are they?????? Wouldn't you want to cheat at other places as well???????  Kevin Spacey is in the movie as the creepy professor.  Let me ask, did he even have to audition for the role, or did they say he just fits that character perfectly????????  Kate Bosworth is in it too.  I don't know about you but she just seems like a real uppity bitch.  That could be just me.  All and all a movie about a bunch of kids cheating in Vegas doesn't do it for me.  Especially since they didn't show me how to do it in the first place.  I hated the movie.
