Review of Shooting Gallery (2005) by Kym (C My Community Profile) R — 09 Apr 2010

Starring Freddie Prinze Jr. as Jericho Hudson Ving Rhames Cue Ball Carl Bridgers, & Roselyn SanchezJezebel Black. Freddie playing a pool hustler to Ving?s Pool Hall owner & ?former? Hustler, welcomes? Jericho to the tribe.

Aka ?8 ball? (After beating ?? number of people at pool. (billiards whatever you want to call it). Well this movie although I don?t recall it saying out right, definitely calls to mind the ol? ?Don?t Hustle a Hustler? (or you?ll get hustled) saying.

Roslyn Sanches over reacts in parts to me. (ike scream wise, where it should be a ?squeak? type its all out melowdrama. There?s a scream for every occasion but sounds like hers are always the same). To me this was original (don?t think I?ve seen a pool hall movie before poker yes so only along that line would I say its NOT original) but this also has a bit of a twist.

It also helps w/ the hustler lingo. In the beginning & one or 2 other parts, on t he screen it?ll have the lingo plus then write the definition even if a character already explained it. Well Hericho is on to of the underworld with his play but gets caught between his boss & a crooked cop.
