Is 1995 Casino a masterpiece??

[Quasar44]

I think it’s a superb movie jusr below Godfather series

A true story and I meet Frank Cullotta ( right hand man to Spilllatro )

What do you think of Donnie Brasco ??

 

[Blaster]

I thought Goodfellas was a much better movie.

 

[rightwinger]

Some parts were very good on how Casinos operate and the influence of the mob

The whole Ginger storyline I was not too fond of

UT is untouchables

UT is untouchables

Oh, yeah I saw that many years ago. Good actors, decent writing to create suspense in scenes. Not bad.

 

[BackAgain]

Casino is, imho, an ok movie. But I see it as pretty overrated.

To me it’s right up there with Goodfellas. A true masterpiece.

It is not very close to the quality of particularly the first 2 Godfather movies.
And, I agree with others that there are several mob movies better including Goodfellas and One Upon a Time in America, and I could make an argument Millers Crossing as well.
It is a solid movie, a little long because it spends more time than it should on Ginger.
Probably could have cut 15 minutes of that out and it would have been a better movie

I thought Johnny Depp was very good but didn’t like the Al Pacino character

A Bronx Tale is a little known, but very good, movie.

"The saddest thing in life is wasted talent" has come to my mind many, many times over the years.
