3. Rounders
4. Poolhall Junkies
5. The Hustler

7. Shade
8. Confidence
9. Big Hand for a Little Lady

Kingpin is funny. Its not like those drama ones, but in a way it still is.
sharePoolhall junkies is a good one. It's amazing how the director hustled the studio into getting a movie made that combines the movie The Hustler with a couple of those others on the list along with awful dialogue, bad acting, and jokes and scams that had appeared everywhere but a movie. I mean he actually got paid for this.
sharealthough i like poolhall junkies.. The Color of Money should be ranked higher than it.
shareLet's not forget "The Grifters" An intense, dark, and scary character study of 3 hustlers
Don't forget The Usual Suspects.One of the greatest hustle films ever.

1. The Hustler (Theatrical Version)
2. The Hustler (Television version)
3. The Hustler (DVD Version) - Commentary sucked, though
4. The Hustler (VHS Version)
5. The Hustler (Captioned for the Hearing Impaired version)
6. The Hustler (Dubbed into Japanese with Subtitles)
7. The Hustler (Dubbed into Portuguese with Japanese subtitles)
8. The Hustler (Dubbed into French with French hearing impaired subtitles)
9. The Hustler (Dubbed into Korean without subtitles)
10. The Hustler (viewed with a broken sound system)
None of the others are on the radar screen. There was an interesting Italian remake of the Hustler using a game unique to Italy, though.
You are a complete idiot!!!

It's hard to stay calm when your future relies on Five cards...
What's the Italian remake called?
shareI don't know the title, but I saw it in Japan in Italian with Japanese subtitles. I was doing better with the subtitles. I can tell you that the story was nearly identical--though a bit more upbeat. It was based on an Italian version of billiards with little pins. I think the game is called Goriziana.
shareIf you want to throw conman movies into the mix then "House of Games", "The Spanish Prisoner" and "Heist" are all great Mamet films.
