If you are not going to be following the NCAA Tournament over the next few weeks, at least you can feed your gambling jones at the theatre.
Opening today is the movie
The Grand
, a comedy starring Woddy Harrelson, David Cross, and Gabe Kaplan. Yes, that Gabe Kaplan. Kotter from "Welcome Back, Kotter". If you haven't seen him lately, it's because he is a hard-core poker fan who's been making a name for himself on the poker circuit. This is his first acting role in 25 years.

. Most of the reviews I've seen are pretty positive.
If comedy is not your thing, then the movie
21
should be released in a few days too. Starring Kevin Spacey,
Larry
Laurence Fishburne, and the always hot Kate Bosworth.
Supposedly this is the true story of the MIT students who took Vegas for a lot of dough in the 90's, but this movie appears to be playing fast and loose with the facts, which I hate. Hopefully it should be interesting at least.
