Robert Luketic ('Legally Blonde') directed the Peter Steinfeld and Allan Loeb adaptation of Ben Mezrich's bestselling book 'Bringing Down the House.' '21' is pure Hollywood all the way - slick and polished, like the wardrobes and personalities inhabited by the kids in their transformation to high rollers. The film is based on the true story of a group of MIT students who use their math skills to 'beat the house' at blackjack in the Las Vegas casinos.
'21' was the official Opening Night Film of the 2008 SXSW Film Festival.
