Review of Casino

Another Scorsese Masterpiece.

Martin Scorsese has never made a bad film that I have seen, and that is why he is easily my all-time favorite director. He always adds a spark to his creations, and never disappoints. He is well known for his amazing mob flicks, and that is what "Casino" is.

"Casino" is based on the true story of Sam Rothstein (Robert De niro), Nicky Santoro (Joe Pesci), and Ginger (Sharon Stone). The film depicts the real life events of the three's lives. Sam Rothstein owns the Tangiers Casino, ran by a mob. He is helped out majorly by his best friend Santoro, who is basically the "Enforcer". He makes sure nobody messes with Rothstein. Think of him as his Goodfellas character, but a little different.

They get very successful in the business, and everything is going great until greed, deception, and power take over, and they begin turning on each other. You will be very surprised at the ending.

"Casino" is filled with amazing acting, and a nearly flawless storyline. Another Scorsese Masterpiece!

9/10
