Movie Reviews of Casino

Movie Review: great performances!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have to say this is a film that has gotten better with age!!! I think whether you own it on Blu-ray or HD DVD you be very impressed with film transfer in 1080p and the sound very superior to the standard DVD version. This is a must own in your hi-def collection. I wish Warner Bros had taking more in it's transfer of "Goodfellas" like Universal giving us something to love about their HD DVD and Blu-ray's.

Summary 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 Emerson
