While there are parts of Two for the Money worth watching, it's ultimately not one worth putting your money on.

The initial set-up is interesting enough but the film rapidly loses its way in the middle and ends up a horribly confused mess, with sub-plots and entire characters simply disappearing into thin air.

If Two for the Money maintained the same backbone as its alluring stars, it could have done much more than just break even.

Pacino rants and McConaughey flashes his pearlies in this craptacular mess.

Even at his worst Al Pacino can charm the birds from the trees, but in "Two For The Money" pigeons are the only species visiting.

Pacino's performance is only a few degrees shy of full-bore scenery-chewing, but the veteran actor stomps through this movie like a small Italian Godzilla.

It really works as a study of gambling.

Por trás de uma trama aparentemente convencional, esconde-se um inteligente estudo de personagem beneficiado pela estupenda atuação de Pacino (que conta também com o belo desempenho de seu companheiro de elenco, McConaughey).

Big, loud, glossy and entertaining.

The movie has a lot of built-in flash and is thus mildly entertaining, though the running time grinds it down.

Original screenwriting gives way to clichés, and the resolution, while offering closure, seems false -- too much a case of the filmmakers wanting to have their cake and eat it, too.

Pacino is having a blast, and so might the viewer, at least until our scenery muncher finally gobbles all the foliage mid-way through the picture.
