Aces (2006)
Aces never win.
It's usually a good idea to avoid attempts to cash in on a worldwide fad, and this is no exception. The acting from pretty much everyone was horridly canned and boring, and the attempt at making the main trio sound well-versed in poker lingo was, well, less than spectacular. The only decent actor in the entire hour-and-a-half long skid-mark on poker is the Asian mobster, Mr. Chow, and his acting wasn't even all that great.
-Spoilers Below-
Three college-age girls get together over a summer and try to take the world of Texas Hold'em by storm. By cheating. The "review" on the back of the box makes it sound like they actually try to have some skill, but instead, they resort to marking the Aces (hence the title) by an invisible dye and reader glasses that the main character uses to see the dye.
-End Spoilers-
The main trio of actresses fit almost every stereotype there could be for college-age women, the super witch, the clueless and yet genius main character, and the spoiled brat/hold 'em whiz.
Best to miss this one, only see if you want to waste an hour-and-a-half on a poor attempt at a poker flick.
