The best mob/gambling movie in modern film

Rating: 9/10 (7 August 2002)

I rated Casino a 9 because of it's appeal on many levels. It has the mafioso saga story that The Godfather mastered, but is combined with the setting and story of early 1970's Las Vegas. This unique combination is what appealed to me the most, not to mention the all-star cast. It is a terrific story that, like most great films, is dramatic, funny and thought-provoking all at the same time. Any male in the 20-35 year-old demographic would probably enjoy this movie.
