DVD Review: Get it or you'll regret it
Summary: 5 Stars
Goodfellas move to Las Vegas on steriods and a dash of speed. If you like mob films you will love Casino. It has all the right elements; sleezy, grity, sex, drama, dark humor, lots of violence, and lots of flowing cash. Hollywood ganster mob film with texture, vitality, and great cinamatagraphy. Never a dull moment. If you don't have this film in your library your are really missing out. Oh and the acting is superb. In my humble opinion Oscars all around. Entertainment to the highest level. Must have movie.
Description of Casino
Director Martin Scorsese reunites with members of his GoodFellas gang (writer Nicholas Pileggi; actors Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Frank Vincent) for a three-hour epic about the rise and fall of mobster Sam "Ace" Rothstein (De Niro), a character based on real-life gangster Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal. (It's modeled after on Wiseguy and GoodFellas and Pileggi's true crime book Casino: Love and Honor in Las Vegas.) Through Rothstein, the picture tells the story of how the Mafia seized, and finally lost control of, Las Vegas gambling. The first hour plays like a fascinating documentary, intricately detailing the inner workings of Vegas casinos. Sharon Stone is the stand out among the actors; she nabbed an Oscar nomination for her role as the voracious Ginger, the glitzy call girl who becomes Rothstein's wife. The film is not as fast paced or gripping as Scorsese's earlier gangster pictures (Mean Streets and GoodFellas), but it's still absorbing. And, hey--it's Scorsese! --Jim EmersonDirector Martin Scorsese reunites with members of his GoodFellas gang (writer Nicholas Pileggi; actors Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Frank Vincent) for a three-hour epic about the rise and fall of mobster Sam "Ace" Rothstein (De Niro), a character based on real-life gangster Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal.
