REVIEW 21 black jack is a very entertaining movie and that my I particularly have liked. The point of the movie that atractted my attention is the possibility that few students manage to win to the powerful casinos using their mathematics skills. When I saw the movie I had the feeling that was a challenge between a child and a giant, although it’s necessary to say that he would be a intelligent child. On the other hand the end of the movie is predecible since it’s a type of movie that is in the habit of finishing well. I have liked the characters, even that I think that in real life it’s very difficuld that it could happen what happens in the movie.

21 blackjack The film is 21 Black Jack, which is a dramatic thriller directed by Robert Luketic in 2008, United States. The main character is a Harvard undergraduate student named Ben, an intelligent child who joins a group that makes a lot of money thanks to a card game that uses Ben's intelligence to get the money, but Ben defrauds his boss and everything what he has won, he steals it and he also loses entry to MIT. But he does not give up and in the end he gets a man who hates his boss to admit him again at MIT. I think it's an entertaining movie and, above all, I liked the last part because I did not expect the casino owner to tell Ben to cheat his boss. Although the beginning has been very long, the first part had many explanations and information In my opinion, I liked the film because it leaves the message that, although you have fame, you are not better than the others and you have to make an effort to get things, so I rec...

REWIEW OF THE MOVIE. This movie makes you understand many themes of life. The goal of the protagonist is to earn money since he is only 21 years old and needs it to pay for his career. The movie makes you think about your future and how you can make it better. Ben starts working in a small store where he receives very little money but decides to go to the casino to earn much more money. Ben ends up leaving behind his medical project and is ruined by investing his money in the casino. His friends did not expect that from Ben. The movie makes us understand that we have to focus on the most important and not leave everything for a vice. By Álvaro Delgado.

REVIEW OF THE MOVIE This film for me teaches you values, many times people forget whats is really important because I think it is necessary to see it to realize it. Try as a 21 year old young man to get money to pay for his medical studies at the university he had always dreamed of. The main reason why I have seen this movie is because I was struck by the fact that a 21 year old student is looking for a life to pay for his studies and whant methods he uses to obtain it, at first he works in a store for 8 dollars an hour but later he is dedicated to going to the casino with a group if people to earn more money and thus pay for her. My only criticism of the film is that the protagonist Ben ignores what is really important, focuses on his ambitions and disregards his obligations, disappoints his friends with the science project. Overall, the film wants to convey that if we want to achieve something, we are able to achieve it, there are many different ways, although we should not l...
