Last night i saw one of the funniest movies i've seen in a long time. Poolhall Junkies is an odd cross between Fight Club, The Hustler (old movie with Jackie Gleason as Minnesota Fats) and Gone in 60 Seconds.

Not exactly an all-star cast, though it does have one of my favorite nut-job actors, Christopher Walken. Although he doesn't play a psycho in this movie, just a rich retired lawyer backing the main character as he hustles his way to his little brother's bail money.

If you don't like playing pool then you probably won't be too impressed by this movie. Or maybe you will depending on how much you like trick shots, and sneaky tactics.

I can't rememeber the characters names since i was a bit drunk last night when i saw the movie, but i can remember some hilarious exchanges, like
the main character not understanding the difference between being someone's nigga and being a nigger :lol:

It's definetly worth checking out :D

he definetly has a unique style. wether he's being serious or funny, he doesn't have to change much about the way he delivers his lines. I can't think of a bad movie he's made.

"What? What kind of a fucking question is that?"
"I'm A MILLIONAIRE!! To me it doesn't matter: I lose 80, I'll get another 80. I think it's you who's sweating!"
