Any of you ever seen this movie starring Al Pacino and Matthew McConaughey from the director of "XXX: Return of Xander Cage"? Unless I'm mistaken, it sounds like the movie is a sports version of "The Devil's Advocate" without the supernatural stuff.
Leonard Maltin Movie Guide Review:
Two for the Money (2005) - 2 out of 4 stars
"Hotshot hustler who promotes sports gambling over phone lines recruits a former football player to join his team, and fashions him as a protégé--with many strings attached. Although "inspired by a true story", this needlessly convoluted yarn goes on too long and takes far too many detours to score. Pacino is compelling to watch, as always, but his character is alternately inscrutable and infuriating. Super 35."
