The Hangover is an American comedy of 2009 about 4 best friends who decide to visit Las Vegas for having a bachelor party two days before the wedding of one of them. A lot of crazy adventures happen to them as they wake up in the morning and do not remember anything they did the night before.
One scene of this film is devoted to blackjack: the one of friends reads some blackjack book about card counting strategy (it was described also in such films as 21 and Rain Man) and decides to try it in casinos for winning some money. All friends do not support this idea because "It is not interesting to gamble if you already know that you will win".
