Plots(1)
Jericho Hudson (Freddie Prinze, Jr.) is a street kid with a gift for shooting pool and a knack for finding trouble. When he joins a group of hustlers at a local pool hall, he finds himself in the middle of a dangerous hustle when he's played as a pawn in a desperate contest of wits (and 9-ball) between two old rivals: "Cue Ball" Carl Bridges (Ving Rhames), a legendary pool hustler and Jericho's stake horse, and Timothy Mortensen, a corrupt vice cop with a grudge against Carl. With the help of his rounder girlfriend, Jezebel (Roselyn Sanchez), Jericho puts his own bold hustle into motion. Pulling a long frame on both Cue Ball and Timothy, Jericho pulls some strings of his own. (official distributor synopsis)
