Customer Reviews

Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, creeps in...
No, the film isn't based on Shakespeare. More like Scorcese. Unknown (at least to me) actors doing a creditable job with a mediocre, predictable script, with all the usual gimmicks, but still produced a film which moved right along and will yield a glimpse of a world unlike ours...at least I HOPE so. Money finds its way down and up the pecking order with blood stained, bruised, and greedy fingers. Low life stereotypes of all kinds vie for thug of the night.
Gambler/broker/daytrader lead was effective about 50% of the time and goofy the other 50%. Pretty woman "Ali" and main bad guy/cook make the most of their roles with only a touch of tongue in cheek.
Rent it, don't buy it, so that YOU won't have to pay up tomorrow...

Huh to the Huh?
Alright, normally I do not produce reviews of reviews of movies. However Daniel J. Sorrell "Sherlock1c", you have compelled me to do so. First you impugn the incorrect "grammer" used by one of the reviewers of Player 5150. News Flash: It's spelled grammar. My browser has spell check. Does yours?

Secondly, you admit that you never saw Player 5150. So, what in the world are you reviewing it for???

Please crawl back under the rock from whence you came.

p.s. it's a decent movie. It's not a classic by any means but if you're looking for some inexpensive entertainment to pass the time on a weekend night, Player 5150 is a good bet -- no pun intended.

Life style of the Young and Foolish
Really about how not to live to a ripe old age.
A young stock broker gets into a lower level bookie
( a leg breaker type), while betting on football games.
One injury can make or break a football team.
I wish this didn't remind me of somebody in my own friends.
Gambling like drugs will get you...ruin the good
life you could have.
To Vegas and get back by dinner, oh, sure.
Get out of there while you can... stupid, stupid, stupid.
Beat up his wife and wants his house.
A bomb and federal agents...
