Default high roller the life of stuey ungar \"WTF\"

well, the other day i was lookin for poker stuff on e-mule what a surprise when i found "High roller the life of stuey ungar"
I thought great a documentary about "the kid"!
once i had it i was like no kiddin it's a movie!
and then... then came the bad surprise, the "wtf" kinda surprise.
One of the loosyest things i've ever saw, i don't know if a post about this "movie" has been made but i had i had to let it out.
i think when you make a movie about stu ungar you better make a good one, and this is definitely not one.
Ps: plus you got to see vince van patten acting [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

For a bit of perspective... it's about 10.6 times better than watching Tilt.

I thoght the movie was ok. Obviously the acting isn't the best, but it does portray stuey's crazy lifestyle. Yes, the book is 10 times better.
