    Scorsese, fantastic! Newman, awesome! Cruise, not so good! I try very hard not to think of this as a sequel to The Hustler, I wish it wasn?t. It was a little ordatious and arrogant of Scorsese really!

    Young Tom Cruise all giddy with smiles and a pool stick to do ninja wif. Newman is the movie who tries to shake off the rust from years out of the pool game since 1960's The Hustler, which was an interesting transition. Cool but not exciting.

    I'm probably one of 23 people on the entire planet who didn't like The Hustler and its sequel, The Color of Money wasn't worlds better. Paul Newman was great and Tom Cruise generally makes you want to slap him with the exception of a few scenes. That Forest Whitaker scene was kin...( read more)d of heartbreaking and the ending was a textbook example of anticlimactic. Maybe with this one, like its predecessor, I'm missing the point. While The Color of Money isn't Martin Scorsese's best work, the direction gets 2nd billing behind Newman with the sharp and snappy dialogue getting a very close 3rd.

    this is an excellent film. the story was very interesting and its easy to invest in the characters. this semi-sequel wasnt quite as good as the hustler, but it did flow a little better. newmans performance was better in the original, but he was very good in this one and deserv...( read more)ed his oscar. cruise was asked to play a character that annoys a bit too much, but the fact that he annoyed me means he played the character well. over all a great future classic.

    This is a good movie about a old time pool hustler who takes on a protege. The movie stars Paul Newman and Tom Cruise. They both give stellar performances. This movie is directed by Martin Scorsese. He has made much better movies than this one but it still has his touch. He know...( read more)s how to spin a good story on the big screen and get the most from his actors. With a solid story, acting and Scorsese directing it made for a entertaining watch.

    The sequel to the Hustler where Eddie is now much older. instead of playing pool, he is the guy funding it. If you like Tom cruise you will like this movie, if you don't like Tom Cruise, you will still like this movie because he acts like a moron pretty much the whole time. All a...( read more)ctors do very well in all portrayals.
