Casino was released in 1995, this film is loosely based on actual factual events that happened at the Las Vegas Casino and Sports Book the StarDust. The movie itself is based on a book “Casino” by Nicholas Pileggi and Larry Shandling. Directed by Martin Scorsese this film isn’t for the feint of heart it uses the F-bomb a whopping 398 times.

   The all-star cast in this movie involves some of my favorites of all time including, Robert DeNiro, Joe Pesci, and “my sweetheart” Sharon Stone. Although this film doesn’t contain a lot of actual gambling, most of the film is in the Casino or on the Las Vegas strip.

   If you want to see a film based loosely on the inner workings of “the Mob” and how the cut throat casino business was run before corporate America took over, then this film is for you. It has plenty of action from start to finish, even though it’s a long movie, it grabs you from the beginning and holds you to the very end.

Enjoy the Film,
