Perfectly adorable
... View MoreIn truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreA film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
... View MoreFirst off, i wish there was a way to give a negative rating on movies. Second, i cant believe someone sat there, read the script, thought it was good. Shot a pilot, thought it was good. Went out and drummed up money, got a cast, shooting crew, scouted locations... I mean come on. SERIOUSLY!! burn every copy ever made and kick the producer in the nuts. I swear if he thought this was his big break or something, it was not his big break. It must have been some porno producer that wanted to "go legit" I never, ever make comments on movies, but I am seriously upset with myself I even spent the time to skip forward thu the whole movie. I saw about 3 seconds of tits. that was it. a complete cock up. a waste of time. dig a hole and put this in the ground. im sure that if i took a crap in a bucket and smeared it on my TV I would have enjoyed it more than watching that movie. its almost so bad that i would love to give it out as a gift to people I hate! kill it, kill it now, and kill it fast!! i feel sorry for whoever sunk money into this thinking they were going to make it rich.
... View MoreFor bad acting and three girls who cant even spell poker then this movie is for you. I have never acted in my life and could do a better job then these girl. They must of found them on the side and the road and wanted them to do the part. The acting is forced and they seem like they have know idea what they are talking about.For anyone in the poker scene do not waist your time with this movie. There have been good poker movies for the poker scene such as rounders. This is a movie worth watching. I just feel bad for anyone that paid money for this It is by far the worst movie i have ever seen in my life.
... View More"Aces" is a story about three girls who scam the underground poker circuit with a mixture of brains and hi-tech gadgetry. It's a low-budget film and can't be compared with the likes of "Rounders", but the hands are well thought out, and the relationships between the girls is believable (one is the newbie, another the patsy, and the third is the schemer/sexy decoy).The scam tests their skills and their friendship, finally ending in Rio for the big game. The director keeps the energy/conflict going between them, and the writer did his homework re: poker. I liked that one of the girls stopped cheating and wanted to rely on her "smarts", and how she made a stand for her friends. I thought that sent a good message.All in all, a fun and enjoyable little film. And don't miss the out takes during the credits - pretty funny.
... View MoreHey, it isn't "Rounders" but it's a clever low-budget movie about three girls that scam the underground poker circuit in Southern California, Vegas and finally Rio De Janerio. Naturally, all three are hot, but each has their own role to play in the scam and the dynamics between them is well crafted. One is drawn into the threesome unwillingly, through which the audience learns Texas Hold 'em and the scam. Their challenges with different poker games and the conflicts that arise between the girls keeps you interested from beginning to end.I'm a poker player (who isn't these days), and the hands are thoughtfully played out and the scam isn't some 'no brainer'. It's more complex than "Shade", that's for sure."Aces" is definitely for the cards and the girls, but it's pretty clever, too. I enjoyed it.
