I Have a week off work,So I'm trying to jam in as many movies as I can,So I started watching this last night,I'm only Half an hour into it,but I will give my thoughts,soon enough.What does everyone else have to say on this movie?
Ok,Heres my two cents
I thought the movie was good,very strong performances,Although I couldn't help but feel this movie is a tad overrated,I dont think it goes anywhere close to the brilliance of ''Goodfellas'' It is also similar to ''American Gangster'' In that the movie was a good ride,but not a film,I wish to see again,partly due to the long running time maybe,Goodfellas I find I can watch many times.So I give this movie an 8/10,If I felt it would still be fun on repeat viewings,I would of said 9/10,but this movie like many,I feel lets it's self down a bit with a slightly overlong running time,giving us too much of a good thing and feels like it drags at parts
I dont post here while watching them,sometimes I will start to watch a movie,get tired,So leave the rest for the next day,and dude,I gave it an 8/10,so I'm not saying I didn't enjoy it
Casino is one of those movies that is only worth watching for a few, choice, memorable scenes. It's not a bad movie but it's certainly not one of the best, imo. The movie would have benefited if it were about 40 minutes shorter lol, the movie really does drag it's feet.

It's been awhile since I've seen casino, but it seemed like I didn't care to much for it, if it's the one with Deniro's really annoying wife then I didn't like it much, she really ruined the movie for me.

My only issue with Casino is that it's probably about an hour too long (which is kind of necessary due to the story arc's slow evolution m). So it's not really a film I'm likely to watch again, because if I wanted a 3 hour gangster/mafia movie I'd watch The Godfather (or part II if I wanted a De Niro hit).
