Uncomparable

Rating: 9/10 (24 April 2019)

I really didn't watch many mob movies except for the Godfather trilogy, Once Upon a Time in America, and Goodfellas...then in 1995, along came a Scorsese classic I found deep, intense, and very well told...Casino.
The best parts of this movie hit you right at the moment when you least expect it. DeNiro and Pesci again make a dynamic duo here. One of the greatest assets in my opinion was getting to see plenty of Sharon Stone's gorgeous legs. The whole main cast was above and beyond...plus being an Alan King fan, this made the movie a plus to me.
However, there are some senses that I felt should never been in the movie, but being by Nicholas Pileggi's book, they were. Unforgettable scores by many big 60s and 70s bands, all the way up to the 80s.
Overall, a very impressive film, despite the length, which was great, but maybe more elements could have been added. This movie is a sure bet to always be in my vast library.
