Editorial Review: Description: Steve McQueen brings his cool fire to the role of the Cincinnati Kid, a small-timer eager to take his chances in high-stakes poker. He gets his chance. Regal, ruthless Lancey Howard (Edward G. Robinson), the elite gambler called the Man, accepts the Kid?s challenge. Norman Jewison (In the Heat of the Night, Moonstruck) directs this taut exploration of back-room gaming, building suspense with each turn of a card. And Ann-Margret, Karl Malden, Rip Torn, National Board of Review Best Supporting Actress Award winner Joan Blondell and many more comprise a full house of talent. Grab a chair and ante up.

 Rating:  - could've beenThis thing could have been as great as Robert Rossen's The Hustler, instead what we get is a second-rate flick by a second-rate director. They screwed up big time when they let the original helmer go, namely Sam Peckinpah, and hired a guy like Norman Jewison, who wasn't even good enough to shine Bloody Sam's shoes. Rating:  - WHO NEEDS TEXAS HOLD "EMThe Cincinnati Kid is the BEST poker movie made!! Steve McQueen, Karl Malden, Ann-Margret were great in this film but Edward G Robinson steals the show as Lancey Howard. For the young folk this movie was how professional poker was played in the back rooms and alleys. Every poker fan should take his or her copy of "Rounders" and toss it in the back of your DVD collection and get a copy of "The Cincinnati Kid" Rating: - Classical McQueenI'm not a critic, just a fan...definitely a classic, wonderful performences by all. MeQueen, Robinson, Malden....it doesn't get too much better, plot good, scenery good, movie gooooood, don't take my word.....watch for yourself. Oh Ann Margaret,,,,,at her bitchiest..... Rating:  - McQeen, Margaret, Weld play their hands!Another great McQueen film!! He is truly the epitome of "cool" and this picture features Tuesday Weld and Ann Margaret to boot! There was a surprise ending which really added to the overall affect of this vintage poker film. Rating: - Top Movie Stars at Their BestLed by Steve McQueen and Edward G. Robinson, this all-star cast, and an excellent story base make this one of the greatest of all movies - whether you are a poker fan or not. Browse for similar items by category:
