Rounders is such a smart, tough little film that its strengths override its fairly serious weaknesses.Full Review

The Onion (A.V. Club)

Mischievously entertaining...Dahl's film has character in oversupply even if its actual characters are sometimes thin. Poker fever makes up for whatever the story lacks in everyday emotions.Full Review

Elvis Mitchell
The New York Times

This isn't a movie where story matters that much: It's a movie of character and milieu, both of which it evokes brilliantly.Full Review

Stephen Hunter
Washington Post

For a grimmer and more realistic look at this world, no modern movie has surpassed Karel Reisz's "The Gambler'' (1974), starring James Caan in a screenplay by self-described degenerate gambler James Toback.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Damon is a magical actor. His mind, as sharp and focused as a laser, beams out of the face of a vivacious choirboy, and, in nearly every scene, he invites you to share the jet-propelled pleasure of his precocious agility.Full Review
