Poor ol' Marty. Epic, grandiose, visceral film after film. And what thanks does he get? "Yeah... but it's not as good as GoodFellas."

Casino is superbly acted and quite astonishingly obsessive about detail, money, and the mob's decline.

An accomplished film that carries with it the unshakable feeling that we've seen it all before.

Overlong and tedious crime drama epic. A kinetic behind-the-scenes look at the Vegas casinos.

Martin Scorsese's intimate epic about money, sex and brute force is a grandly conceived study of what happens to goodfellas from the mean streets when they outstrip their wildest dreams and achieve the pinnacle of wealth and power.

Casino is Scorsese's 'messy drawer' of a movie; disconnected scenes and stylistic odds and sods... it might be his most idiosyncratic.

It's not the actors' fault that no one is able to break through the film's gorgeous but chilly surface. You watch Casino with respect and appreciation, reveling in its documentary sense of detail.

So long as Casino stays focused on the excesses -- of language, of violence, of ambition -- in the life-styles of the rich and infamous, it remains a smart, knowing, if often repetitive, spectacle.

Violent story of vice and virtue not for kids.

Simultaneously quite watchable and passionless.

Scorsese may be flailing here, but Scorsese flailing is more formidable than most directors at the top of their form.

[Stone] seems to be trying to enter a more passionate movie, where a neurotic gold digger could at least have a good time. By the end of Casino, for all its craftsmanly bravura, you may want to join her.
