If you're a guy, you must buy!

If you're ever trapped in your own house with that clueless neighbor who you wish would go home , it's good to have a copy of Casino in your DVD collection. Repeated viewing does not diminish the entertainment value of this film. At all. Maybe it's because each and every facet of the production is of the highest order. Scorsese really pulls out the stops. The three-ring storyline is engrossing. And the casting might be the best I've ever seen ,especially the Remo character who's method-acting/ non-acting helps steal every scene he's in. And Bach's St.John's Passion plays over the opening credits and an Adagio(?)at the end- I mean, this movie has everything! Did I mention this is the best gangster movie since the 1931 version of Public Enemy? Three hours is not enough but wadya gonna do?
