High Rollers

A return to his late 80s/early 90s pre-Pulp Fiction form, that is! This movie is the definition of "Straight to video" B movies that used to exist before the age of internet. Predictable, yet nonsensical script, phone-it-in acting, and entirely undeserving of your attention unless you are actively seeking out this sort of trash. It trudges through cliché after cliché, offering nothing fresh or entertaining. Even John Travolta's once-commanding presence can't salvage this disjointed mess from the bargain bin of cinematic misfires. It's little more than a forgettable footnote in Travolta's filmography, so feel free to skip.

This is a highschool production, right? RIGHT!? I've seen toddlers in Christmas plays act better and I've seen homeless hobos write better and I've seen dogs direct better. Don't waste your finite, limited and priceless time watching this 'movie'.

Seriously Hollywood must stop funding these F movies for Failed Hollywood stars attempting "comebacks' that will never ever under any circumstances happen because oh I don't know there's a reason they failed. In this case lack of talent, too much interest in a CIA funded 'religion' (scientology) and a complete lack of common sense (of whoever thought funding this 'movie' as a producer was a sensible use of however much this thing cost.)

This is by far the best thing Travolta has come out with since he did "The Boy In A Plastic Bubble." This star has proved he has a great future ahead, and his co-stars in the movie only elevate the story to another level!. The effects, the storyline, the actors were all spot on - can't wait for the next instalment in this series of Cash Out and High Rollers - I'm sure it will surpass even these two! Sorry to see the end credits note on producer Sean Stone, he will truly be missed and had definitely shone brightly in the world of Hollywood movies. This could be similar to the "Oceans" series, maybe Travolta could even bring favorites like Pitt and Clooney onboard to spice up the genre? Who knows? Kudos to all who came together to make this a great movie - keep them coming!

We are living in a very bad time where most movies being released are crap and they copy off of every action movie from the old days. We haven't gotten a great heist movie since Ambulance (2022), I highly recommend you watch that movie if you are into heist thrillers. Don't watch High Rollers thinking it will be as great as the 2001 classic Ocean's Eleven, you will be disappointed.

These Hollywood actors were once the biggest stars and they put lots of effort into their films, Travolta and Bruce Willis were big names in the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. But today in the 2020s after the COVID-19 pandemic, most of the actors we know and love are all tired and they put zero effort into making movies.

Sad time we live in and I don't feel it will get better, this is why I'm so nostalgic. I miss the days when we constantly got a great movie and people went to DVD rental stores to pick up blockbusters. My overall rating of High Rollers is 3 stars, they tried but failed.

If you want a reason to gouge your eyes out, watch this movie. Horrible plot and corny acting. A horrible soap opera. Literally would rather sit on a plane with a screaming baby puking next to me. I am questioning how someone could make this horrible of a movie. Staring at a wall is more entertaining. I would rather drink toilet water than watch this movie. Waste of time and money. I think a kindergarten musical would be a better use of time. I strongly advise that you avoid watching this movie again all costs. An experience I wish I could forget. How could this movie be so horrible within the decent cast? I don't know.
