Spacey in 21

Film about the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) blackjack card-counting team is now out on DVD.

Fans of the gambling film 21, which portrays the exploits of the MIT blackjack players throughout their time in Las Vegas predominantly in the 1980s, can now buy the movie on DVD.

Out in America since last week, the picture stars Jim Sturgess, Kate Bosworth and American Beauty actor Kevin Spacey.

The film is based on the book Bringing Down the House by Ben Mezrich - author of Ugly Americans - and received a number of positive reviews when it was released on the big screen this spring.

According to the Daily Herald, the movie is "fun" and highlights how a group of students took Las Vegas for a lot of money over a set period of time.

Turn the River, which stars Famke Janssen, is also out to buy now. The picture follows the antics of Kailey (Janssen), who picks up money playing poker and pool in bars across the US.

Her aim is to raise enough cash so that she and her son can move to Canada and have a better life.
