Reading what others have wrote, it seems like 50/50 between liking it more than the original or not. Personally I'm with the crowd that thinks the original God of Gamblers was the best. The gambling was very minimal, however the action was good and very good acting by both Chow Yun Fat and Tony Leung. These redeemable factors make it still a good movie even if it wasn't as good as the original. 8 out of 10.
