Ever hear of this movie?

No. Reviews range from pretty good to decent to don't waste your time. Watched a clip and looks sorta lame to me. I'll give you one to avoid and that's "Shooting Gallery" w/ Freddie Prinze Jr. and Ving Rhames. Makes 'Poolhall Junkies' look like Academy Award worthy.

I was being sarcastic, given the "Minnesota fats" and "Black Widow" tropes clearly on display in the trailer

I haven't watched it yet it's on one of my Roku channels. I'll probably watch it later on tonight when the wife is sleeping put in my earbuds
BWAHAHAHA! I saw this movie. Like all pool movies not based on a Tevis novel this was atrocious. The idea that someone was invested in the idea of making a pool movie and then to put such utter stupidity in it is just mind boggling. He fixes her fundamentals by making her where a torture harness. Dead serious. I swear this was likely 40% an Asian kink fantasy for the screenwriter.

Haven't seen this movie, but I did see what is essentially a cue-action torture device on Taobao the other day. If I figure out how to post picture I'll put it here
Yes. I like most of the pool movies out there. Some are cheesy...others are cool and well done.
Walk away Joe is a good one too.

Now I know I'm going to watch it
Based on the trailer it does not look to bad.
Do it. Prepare for a roller coaster ride brought to you by an APA 2 that based the screenplay on all the advice they’ve been given over the years from all the APA 4s that have been indoctrinated with pool cliches and bad advice.
IMDB 6.1 Usually means reasonable acting, semblance of a budget, story etc... The premise sounds hokey though. Will attempt a watch. 
2 line review forthcoming.

I keep hearing this. Kinda makes me want to watch it. I'm sure it's no "The Room", but sometimes things are so bad, they're good.
