There are very few movies that give you laughter, worry, and a happy ending. This movie has it all. The main actor is one of the best I've ever seen. He should have had a bigger role in That Thing You Do :)
This is a fun movie, its an uplifting movie, its enjoyable repeatedly. I really can't believe this movie is rated any less than 7-8 stars considering how good it really is. This movie deserves more ratings than a re-hash of Footloose for crying out loud.
I can only assume that the lower reviews are from die-hard pool players that want to call BS on things, but like any movie that's not the point. I didn't watch Happy Gilmore and give it 2 stars because the golf wasn't realistic. Its very well written, well produced, well directed, and well acted. Period. Oh and btw, its a movie!!
Watch it, enjoy the music, enjoy the acting, enjoy the writing, enjoy! I've seen it dozens of times over the years and I still LOL at times. Really I'd love to see Christopher Walken and Mars Callahan together in more like this. The production cast really should have made the Card Sharks movie :)
