Good flick based on the book Breaking the House about MIT students who, guided by a manipulative professor (Kevin Spacey) set out to win big counting cards in Vegas. I watched this one with my daughter and it’s pretty gripping and sort of violent in parts, but exciting nonetheless. How accurate?. I don’t know. I actually think it owes quite a bit to “Risky Business” as a young man struggles to make lots of money doing something illegal so that he can get into the college/medical school of his choice, ie, Harvard. The ending is right out of Cruise’s speech at the end of the earlier movie
