A former division I quarterback (McConaughey) sidelined by injury becomes a gambling advisor landing the big clients for a renowned bookie (Pacino).

At first I was skeptical of Two for the Money, but I gave it a shot. Based on a true story I do not know how much is real and how much is fiction but this movie is a cautionary tale. It is a tale of squandering your gift for personal gain and the highs and lows that it will lead you.
