9 BALL

Not bad
It seems like a fairly large marketing scheme for the APA. But Jennifer Barretta plays a mediocre-decent role playing gail never having acted professionally before. If you are a pool junkie that likes to see husle based movies. Go ahead and watch it!

I've seen worse...
But I see a lot of movies. 9 BALL ranks in the all time top 10 movies about billiards. Unfortunately there haven't been very many such movies, and the number of truly great ones can be counted on the fingers of one negligent punch press operator's hand. The mostly amatuer cast, highlighted by Jennifer Barretta, makes an honest effort but are undone by a cliche-ridden script and poor direction. Tony Palma's true talent is in raising money for very low budget films... not so much in making them.

Excellent Movie
Great to see a new classic style pool movie out there recognizing women in the game. It was inspirational and promotes league play as opposed to hustling. Very enjoyable.
