The Cincinnati Kid 1965 6 out of 10


The Cincinnati Kid  1965    6 out of 10

This movie is basically pokers answer to The Hustler.  The story is very similar, but just with a different subject matter.  It stars Steve McQueen in the title role as a gambler who is ready for the biggest poker game of this life against the number one player ( Edward G Robinson).   It was a decent movie delving into the world of Poker (way before Poker was what it is today)  but being so similar to The Hustler  I found myself comparing it to that earlier film which left me unimpressed.
