(crime, drama)
This Martin Scorsese film depicts the Janus-like quality of Las Vegas—it has a glittering, glamorous face, as well as a brutal, cruel one. Ace Rothstein and Nicky Santoro, mobsters who move to Las Vegas to make their mark, live and work in this paradoxical world. Seen through their eyes, each as a foil to the other, the details of mob involvement in the casinos of the 1970's and '80's are revealed. Ace is the smooth operator of the Tangiers casino, while Nicky is his boyhood friend and tough strongman, robbing and shaking down the locals. However, they each have a tragic flaw—Ace falls in love with a hustler, Ginger, and Nicky falls into an ever-deepening spiral of drugs and violence.

As a lifelong player who has crossed paths with some marginal rates
portrayed in the film, I am very conscious of history, culture, environment and
Tangier, the fictional Casino in the
Control of Sam "Ace" Rothstein (Robert DeNiro). Rothstein is not a mafia member
, but a "Moneymaker" for them because he is the nation's best sports
handicapped. It is refreshing for a movie that finally
show that not all players are fools, but instead one that takes advantage of the
which are many.
Rothstein's partner in crime is Nicky Santoro (Joe Pesci), which is much less convincing
like a mobster than he seems to believe.
Sharon Stone plays the psychotic Ginger, once in a lifetime role in
that was the only time in my life I have been able to see your movie.
The supporting cast is strong, headed by James Woods and Don Rickles
(excellent in their ability dramatic), and the film is generally well-acted
.
If you're a player or know "wiseguy" culture, film
not have to be explained, whereas if not, you feel as if they had encountered the
secret meeting instead of the mafia and private
what is said, without anyone knowing you were there. This film is basa
in the true story of what happened when the crowd tried to put his men
suits them and have a Casino game, and why has never been tried
since. The tribute to the incestuous nature of politics
Nevada was an excellent touch.
Most of us would not like a guy just like Sam Rothstein, nor be
we like him, but if we go to Las Vegas for a weekend and stay in a Casino / hotel
We will have a better experience if your gaze is to ensure that our
is a pleasant stay. The film's winking at how Vegas has been sanitized
since those days it was also necessary, and reflects an era lost in sadness, when the baby
(the "old school" types who made great Vegas) was
thrown out with the bath water (organized crime influences).
Casino is a very good movie. If you're at all interested in
gangster / mafia movies, or if you're at all a fan of director / co-writer
Martin Scorsese, novelist / co-writer Nicholas Pileggi, or actors Robert
De Niro, Joe Pesci, Sharon Stone and James Woods, then
Casino is without doubt a must-see. I am a great fan of De Niro, and I am a fan of Scorsese
and Woods, too. Since then, enjoy the film.
But I do not think that Casino is far from a "perfect" film. An 8-10
may seem high, but if you're familiar with my reviews, you know
that is not higher than a score on my part - is closer to the average
me. There are a lot of failures here, and I will spend some time
pointing out, especially since the film receives so many 10.
Casino se basa en la historia de Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal and
Stardust Casino in Las Vegas. The character Rosenthal is here
the name of Sam "Ace" Rothstein and is played by De Niro. The hotel became the Tangier
for the film. The mob backs Rothstein, but you have to create a false front
Rothstein, while "secretly" runs the hotel, because his game
charges back East. The falls in love and marries former
Hooker / call-girl and current Vegas Hustler Ginger McKenna (Stone), which
remains in love with her pimp, Lester Diamond (Woods). Meanwhile, mobs
strong-arm Nicky Santoro (Pesci) to protect the heads of Vegas
Rothstein, but finally ends and running his own rackets
trying to take over the city. Casino is the story of the relationship
and political problems that this cast of characters and a series of
Associates in running. It's like a path to progressive destruction of
everyone involved.
The film is unusual in many respects. The most striking oddity is that a large part of
she said through alternating narration of the two main characters
, Rothstein and Santoro. The aim was probably to include a much more
of Pileggi's book, in a most literal way, that would have been
possible through more conventional means. Significantly, the
narrative works, as well as he does, especially since a lot of
is given a rapid-fire delivery. For at least the first 15 minutes,
is just a pause in the dialogue narrational.
One of the reasons why it is not because the work style that used to accompany Scorsese
at the opening. It employs a lot of quick cuts, while presenting
very stylized, documentary-like footage. The opening
feels as much fun as a behind the scenes to see how the typical Casino
works as it feels like a fiction film about gangsters.
Finally, the film develops from almost 100% of narration hardly
narration (although the story never completely leaves the film).
This is so subtle that one barely notices. Scorsese as director of
also rapidly evolving style of the court documentary approach
something more conventional.
This is fine, but on the other hand, the gradual evolution
can only happen because the film is so long - that clocks in just a couple minutes shy
3 hours. That's a bit too long for the story to be told.
At least in half, began to feel a little draggy. All
equipment needed for the story, but it could have been more rigorous
more.
Another unusual aspect is the score / banda sonora, which consists
first pop success of a broad space of time - 30 years or more. Despite that
like the songs - I've owned the CD because it came out and listen to him
often enough - the songs and can help set the mood for some scenes,
be a bit too relentless and authoritarian in history after a while.
is beginning to approach the dreaded "mix tape" mentality, where the songs are
exists only because the director wanted to share with you some bitchin 'tunes
who likes a lot. A bit of ebb and flow with the music, and music
better correlation with the drama, who have worked even better.
Presumably, Scorsese is shooting for something like a sensory assault,
because it's what you get in Las Vegas. The visual
are full of neon lights, flashy clothing (I love Rothstein Clothing), and striking people
such. La banda sonora is probably meant to equalize. But in this case, if I
goes, I think we have to ido a combination of
commissioned music incorporates a lot of sounds Casino, or
imitated a lot of sounds Casino -- The cacophonous symphony of electronic
various machines constantly go through each other's way - with schmaltzy songs
show, Liza wing, Jerry Vale, Tom Jones, Wayne Newton, etc. That
Scorsese was trying to give a Vegas style sensory assault
is also supported by audio-visual contrast between the scenes footage
Vegas and elsewhere, as Kansas City. So I can understand the motivation
, but I am not sure that the final outcome exactly worked.
of course, the performances are exceptional, even if everyone is playing
rate, except perhaps Woods. The plot and characters are written and
takes place so that the viewer can see disaster coming
way before the characters can - and that's how it should be. For example,
as a spectator, you know as soon as it starts is a bad idea for
Rothstein to kowtow to McKenna to win her hand in marriage, but Rothstein
is blind in love and finish paying for it. All
develops almost a little predictable in this sense, and another mild
flaw is that it demonstrated the penultimate moment of the film to
right at the outset. It tends to make you feel even more stretched,
if you have the anticipation of that scene.
But the slight defects should not stop anyone from seeing this film, and
of course, a good number of viewers feel that there are no defects at all.
