However, I have heard people say its too long and that it kinda rips of Goodfellas and the back and forth between Ace and Ginger can get quite tiresome. And like Goodfellas and so many of Scorsese's other films it has a great soundtrack that fits the time and mood of the film brilliantly. I'll always love De Niro and Pesci's on screen Chemistry, I think they are one of the best hollywood pairings of the second half of the last century. Very dark film with some humorous moments. With an amazing cast, you will enjoy this edge-of-your-seat thriller as you watch. This movie tells a thrilling story of a casino heist and the remake stars George Clooney, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia, Brad Pitt, and Julia Roberts. It’s about a scheme to rob a racetrack (filmed on location at Santa Anita). Ocean’s Eleven is one of the most popular movies that has a casino setting and a gambling theme. The Killing (1956) This was an early Stanley Kubrick film made in 1956. I've watched it quite a few times and to me it's one of his best, right up there with the big three of Scorsese's work (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas). In PART 1, I posted the first half of my list The 21 Best Gambling Movies of All Time.
But anyway, I just wanted to see what Reddit thinks about 'Casino'. I want to start off by saying I love Martin Scorsese's work ever since I first saw the opening sequence to Goodfellas when I was 15, I remember lying to the guy who served me saying I was 18 and I couldn't believe he let me buy it.
