I saw this movie in 2002 (I think) on CBC-Channel 9-Windsor, Ontario across the Detroit River one day as I was flipping through the channels. It intrigued me because, in my own opinion, bingo is a waste of time and money. I was pleasantly surprised to see how the game and the people who frequent bingo halls were portrayed as total losers. I laughed a few times. Barry Newhook is kind of cute, and Lois Brown was rather funny. They both seem talented, and they should work again as an on-screen couple. Movies like "The Bingo Robbers" are more interesting than the usual stupid, predictable high-budget-type movies. Movies made about normal people who don't have great jobs or a lot of money just seem more enjoyable because regular people can relate to these kinds of movies better.

This is a stylish, and overall well done Eastern Canadian digital film. The acting certainly isn't anything to rave about, but it's okay. The storyline is kind of bland as well, but it's got some style and as far as digital films go, this is a stellar one.
