This is definitely INSPIRED by an actual group of people. The premise is the same, "card counting" Pretend there isn't a book. If you like Vegas, prepare for a good night at the movies. Maybe wait for dvd. It was nice though to be out with some good people.

I read there's some controversy with this film because all the main characters in real life are Asian. Oh well, I don't really care (as long it's about MIT, not Cal).

Movie Trivia /MIT wouldn't allow filming on its campus, so the movie was actually filmed at Boston University. /Real MIT students were used as extras.
