THE GRAND




Comedy

PRINCIPAL CAST MEMBERS
Woody Harrelson: "One-Eyed" Jack Faro, owner of the seedy Rabbit’s Foot casino

REVIEW
Set in Las Vegas, the self-promoted gambling capital of the world, I wouldn’t bet on it (ha, ha…get it?) but my guess is that this movie will only appeal to those
a) Who are poker fanatics
b) Who think someone describing their home town as the “Frostbite Amputation Capital of the Midwest” is a really funny one-liner.

For the rest of us this televised poker competition is not only boring it is a complete waste of time.

CLASSIFICATION
for profanity and frequent drug use.
