Anyone interested in this movie coming out later in March? It's based on the book "Bringing Down the House" and inspired by a true story. Basically, it's about this group of really smart kids from M.I.T. who start counting cards out in Vegas on weekends to make money. The previews look really great.

Yes! I just saw an ad for the for the first time yesterday. I actually watched a documentary on what sounds to be that same storyline about a month or two ago. Should be a good film.

I believe I've probably seen the same documentary... Although it was
more like a year or two ago for me... It was 60 minutes, or 20/20, or
one of them... And I remember finding it interesting and informative...
But I really can't see a movie following a smart kids card counting
storeline as being a big box office hit... But then maybe if they
throw in some mafia, and car chase senses, then who knows...

Yeah, I saw that documentary a while ago too... I don't know about a movie about it, sounds kinda boring, unless, like CopyCat says, the mafia puts out hits on them or something!

Well i believe i did see some clip of a shoot out scene in the casino in one of the previews (or some sort of action along those lines)... .I dunno, i actually think they could make it work out to be fairly interesting if they don't go too extreme trying to make it more 'hollywood'.
