Casino movie review

Casino is the last film of martin scorsese's crime trilogy. I have compiled the following casino film reviews for your reference.

Casino Film Review 1 I saw Scorsese's last chapter about Scorsese, the casino two days ago, and happened to revisit the casino I saw a few years ago. Three hours of film, smooth as water; Such a complicated relationship between characters is orderly in front of the master's camera; Very fine lines and very fine music can't help but admire the author's skill and intention; Of course, the clever insertion of voiceover makes the film extremely wonderful.

Casino inherits the fast pace of Boys and makes the life of a bunch of hooligans poetic and emotional. We don't have to judge them morally, because gangsters are the same people, just like the most violent Nicky, and they all have a lovely side in everyone's eyes, and they all come from real scenes, and even we will be fascinated by their lifestyle at that time, so we try to condemn everything as hypocrisy.

Las Vegas changed them and made them reach the peak of their lives. Is it in Las Vegas that they are all finished, or lost their lives, or almost lost their lives, at least theirs? Career? It's over. The days of living like a star are over. Since then, Vegas has never had the scenery of the gangster background in the 1970 s, and it has become a place for the whole family to travel. When the children saw the pirate ship, their parents lost all their mortgage and tuition. No matter how the times change, the only winner is still the banker.

When Nicky and Sam scuffled, their expansion finally ruined everything. Ambition takes them beyond the bottom line. Nicky is looking forward to leaving his hometown, and going to Vegas to find his childhood friend Sam to cover up his identity. Then he can do whatever he wants, satisfy his violent tendency to kill and his desire to steal, and finally become arrogant. He not only wants to replace those old guys, but also violates the biggest taboo of the gang? Fuck other people's wives. He doesn't care. In fact, everything is under the control of the bosses and the surveillance of the FBI. They are all gambling. Nicky gambled on his madness, while Sam gambled on his marriage with Ginger.

Sam's job is to make everyone happy. Since Jiang appeared, his reason has gradually lost. Just like seeing her cheating in the casino. Sam tried her best to stop cheating, but she went anyway, thinking it was cool. She doesn't love him. A born bitch only wants the money and jewels, but he thinks he can change her. When it was too late, he didn't want her to go, so he wouldn't give her money. But he promised her, but when she stole the money, she soon squandered it. A wayward woman, depravity is her nature. How can Sam, who is bursting with self-confidence and eager for family, tell?

In the end, family affairs inevitably affect the orderly operation of enterprises and the rigorous procedures. Those bosses can't stand the chaos in Vegas, and they can't accept that their oil and water are getting less and less. The most ironic thing is that an obscure self-funded bill has uprooted the gangster tree. Whether it's the powerful bosses Sam and Nicky who really run enterprises, or the thugs following them, no one is spared. The days of digging holes in the desert are gone forever.

Casino Film Review 2 "Casino" is the last film of martin scorsese's crime trilogy. As a seal, Casino obviously won't let people down. The movie continues? Carry the violence to the end? The theme of the novel covers all the essential elements of martin scorsese, still violent, still suspenseful, still shocking, still? Rational? . Why do you say that? Rational? , completely relative to another gang movie mogul? Francis coppola. Compared with the Godfather trilogy, which put too much pen and ink into the struggle between goodwill and betrayal, Casino and the previous Thief has a Way are more peaceful and rational, just like rostain's unusual calmness when he learned that his wife Ginger was having an affair with his closest friend Nicky, which shows the usefulness of rostain? Brain? The characteristics of speech and the strong rational color of this film.

Indeed, the most important thing to control the whole casino is not loyalty, money or violence. Only wisdom and reason can play a variety of rich players who are oily but not easy to penetrate. Before entering Las Vegas, they may be the most cunning foxes, but once they enter Las Vegas, all their wits will be covered by greed, and the only one who stays out, looks on coldly and profits from it with his mind is rostain. At the beginning of the film, the director publicly exposed the criminal rules in Vegas and the price to pay for breaking them. Rostain, who knows all this, keeps Vegas in good order. He used reason to protect himself. However, from the moment he saw Jiang, everything suddenly changed. Although his reason has not disappeared, even he has realized it himself? Love at first sight? How dangerous it is to fuck such a woman. But he finally agreed. Heroes are sad and beautiful. Beauty pass? This old saying, knowing that Jiang loves money and drugs and doesn't love himself, resolutely married her. Perhaps rostain also found a rational reason for his emotional behavior (this can be known through the voiceover following the development of the plot). For example, Jiang is good at gambling by grasping the weaknesses of urban people, can manage all parties quietly, and finally make himself profit from it. From this perspective, Jiang can be regarded as a heroine in Vegas. Rostain married her, which naturally enabled him to make overall plans and consolidate his position as the head of the company. Besides, Ginger's charm and social skills just filled the empty vase around rostain. But even if these are the benefits of rostain's marriage to Jiang, then the curse beyond the benefits is obvious to rostain and cannot be ignored. There is no doubt about the beauty of ginger, but the goodness that contrasts with beauty is pitiful. She is greedy and only believes in money and pursues it. For money, she can throw everything away and even use her daughter as a bargaining chip. He wants nothing in life, but something in return. She is an unbearable woman. However, it is such a woman who constantly reveals her nature that rostain can't let it go completely. This is incomprehensible? Keep giving up? Similar or even Jiang's own? Soft goods? An unrepentant copy of her ex-boyfriend (james woods). To some extent, rostain's rare emotion in his life ruined his bright future. Of course, this is only to a certain extent. The fundamental reason is that Vegas will never have a single, lasting winner. From the wealthy businessman addicted to games to the casino operator rostain, and then to the old Italian mafia behind the scenes. Who ever thought he could win forever, lost everything or even his life, and became a desert around Las Vegas? One of the pits? . Only people like rostain, whose brain keeps spinning for 24 hours, can finally survive.

This is Las Vegas and life. Without eternal victory, the winner loses everything. ......

Casino Film Review 3 Scorsese is best at epic gangster movies. Many people say that this film is the masterpiece of the film sociologist, and he is the most unprofessional rookie fan. I can't name one, two or three, but after watching the movie, I still feel that all the essence is classic. In this film, Scorsese still plays the leading role with his best partner De Niro, still tells stories, and still resolves violence from a calm and objective perspective. The fate of the characters is tumbling and destroying in this almost indifferent camera language, while Scorsese just watches quietly, which is precisely the biggest shock to the audience in his films.

De Niro's performance in this film reached his usual level. I even have some doubts that when he plays such a gangster-like role, even if he is out of order, we will not notice it at all. Because he came to this station and stared at someone with his head tilted slightly, it became a vivid BOSS phase, and there was no need for redundant interpretation at all, right? The boss is either De Niro or De Niro is the boss? . De Niro's acting level is like the existence of super-class masters in martial arts novels. Every movement seems simple, but it is seamless? You will always know that this is the case, but you will never learn.

Sharon in the film? The role of Si Tong touched me a lot. To be precise, I was extremely disgusted. A female rogue and prostitute, for the sake of so-called love and independence, completely immersed in her own world, and then even this so-called dream and freedom consciousness are lost, completely reduced to drugs and desire efforts. Doesn't De Niro care enough about her? No, it was her own confusion and naivety that ruined herself and finally became a bitch that everyone spurned. Sharon. Si Tong can win the Golden Globe Award and Oscar nomination for this role, which shows the success of shaping this role. But judging from her performance in and out of the play in recent years, people have to think that she can play this role well because of her nature, which is also her true color.

Casino seems to be the genre terminator of classic gangster movies. It is true that there are many gangster movies after it, including American gangster and Scorsese's own New York gangster, but it is not difficult to see that this kind of gangster movies have been very different from those before the 1980 s. In recent years, action scenes have become more and more popular in gangster movies, and they have occupied a larger proportion. The dialogue between characters and the so-called literary drama seem to be getting less and less attention. In today's gangster movies, it is hard for us to see the literary drama of the classic dialogue at the beginning of The Godfather. All the gang bosses can't wait to say a few words and then immediately pull out their guns and cut each other.

It can't be said that this is a retrogression of gangster movies. The reason for this change comes down to one thing, which is actually very vulgar: the change of the times. In the gangster movies represented by The Godfather, most gang members are Italians and Irish, showing a gentlemanly manner and helping the needy, such as Godfather Don? Corleone used to help the elderly in the community against bad landlords; They are organized by families and ethnic groups and have certain moral standards, such as never being contaminated with drugs. This kind of screen image conforms to the social situation at that time, or to the real gang situation recognized by the audience at that time. Therefore, these well-made traditional gangster films have been sought after by a large number of audiences, gained great commercial value, and achieved a glorious period in film history.

Casino gangs have turned from new york in the godfather to Las Vegas. Although these gang members are? Outsiders? Is it far? Hometown? Besides, he keeps close contact with the bosses in his hometown. Even though the tribute money is getting less and less, Nick, the boss of Las Vegas, is still afraid of his bosses. This powerful boss is the powerful American Truck Drivers Union. In fact, all kinds of trade unions in the United States started with the help of various gangs. It can even be said that many trade unions in the United States started from gangs. They were controlled by many Irish people and developed a huge industrial chain through various legal and illegal means, which became an important force on the edge of American law. However, today's American trade unions have already got rid of the traces of gangs and become a huge political force that can influence American politics. Perhaps, Las Vegas in those days was the last stain they exposed to the world, and it also became? Classical gangs? The final glory.

In addition, the social situation in the United States today is very different from that of that year. A large number of Hispanic, Asian and Eastern European immigrants poured in, replacing the position of Italians and Irish in those years (or filling the position they left behind) and becoming the main force of gangs. They had completely different living habits and even gangster moral standards from their predecessors in those years, and traditional gangster movies lost the foundation of realistic images. With the development of the Internet age, people's lives have become fragmented and anxious. Nowadays, it is difficult for young people to sit for three hours and watch a long-winded gangster film, even if it is directed by Scorsese.

As a result, the once epic gangster movies lost their survival soil. After all, movies are a kind of entertainment consumption. The commercialization of film has existed since its birth. Times have changed, so have movies, and gangster movies are no exception? The market tells us that we will shoot whatever the audience wants to see. However, at present, Scorsese's boardwalk empire is well received as a cultural relic, which shows that some traditions still have lasting charm.

Casino movie review 4 Las Vegas, bustling nothingness

For a person who enters a casino, he will gamble more and more, because when he wins 10 thousand, what he sees is not winning 10 thousand, but losing 90 thousand.

Casino.

Casino is the last film of Grandpa Ma Lao's gangster trilogy, with the same Robert De Niro and the same Joe Percy. This seems to be the original team of good people, and the only one is our beautiful and sexy Sharon Si Tong. This movie is a man's favorite movie. When Nemo put a pen in his friend's throat, I believe all men should have a boiling passion. Although this way is simple and rude, it tells us all in the most primitive way not to mess with us and our friends. Men like this. Real men like this.

I don't know why, for Robert De Niro, his dirty words are always clearly defined and well-founded. You don't think he's bad, but for Joe Percy, he's bad, so bad, so bad that you're scared. It's not good to mix the two, which really makes you ecstatic.

There are always women doing bad things in Grandpa Ma Lao's movies, and the sudden appearance of beautiful and sexy ginger embarrassed the wise rostain. As always, bosses are equally stupid, money is equally attractive, and women are just a little soul decoration. Brotherhood is always so easily tempted. A person who advances towards material things, whether dead or alive, is always sad.

The film is long, but it is not boring. Of all the gambling films, I don't think anything can surpass this one, such as Fage's windbreaker, Xing Ye's special functions and Hua Zai's handsome face. Although I like them all, if they are deep and wide, at least they are unprecedented in gambling films. Cut the crap and let's watch the wonderful plot and dialogue.

In a word: fuck, fuck, fuck.

1, snake lady

Cingil: I should never have married Sam. He is a Gemini, a triple Gemini. Gemini is a snake. You can't trust this snake.

Ginger: I shouldn't have married Sam. He is a Gemini, three times as big as Gemini. Gemini people are snakes. You can't trust snakes.

Perhaps this sentence should be put by Sam. Sam is not like a snake, but Ginger is more like it. Perhaps, money is not the only thing to maintain relationships. I was wrong at first, paying too much attention to the role of money and ignoring feelings. Finally, I feel sorry for Jiang's death.

2. Moral bathroom

Wonderful dialogue: Ace rostain: Running a casino is like robbing a bank without the police present. For people like me, Las Vegas can wash away your sins. It's like a moral car wash.

Ace rostain: Running a casino is like robbing a bank without the police. For people like me, Las Vegas can wash away my sins. It's like a moral washing workshop.

Perhaps this sentence tells the true meaning of casino ecology. In fact, there is no police robbing the bank, or the police can rob the bank in partnership with you. Sam knows a lot about casinos and himself. People like him can only live in Las Vegas, a moral washing workshop, so that evil cloth is no longer evil, but proof of blood.

3 Casino Temptation

Wonderful dialogue: Billy Sherbert: (to the winner) Counting so much money in public.

Billy Sherbert: (to the winner) This money is too much to count in public.

Perhaps this is the most sincere temptation for gamblers in casinos, but it usually stays at the level of temptation. This sentence is more appropriate for gamblers to say to casinos. The biggest winner can never be a gambler. It's not even a casino, it's just someone behind it.

4, come out to mix, sooner or later.

Wonderful dialogue: A plane just landed on the golf course)

Ace rostain: The FBI watched Nicky play golf for so long that he ran out of gas.

A plane just crashed on the golf course.

Ace rostain: The FBI watched Nicky play golf for too long, and finally the car ran out of gas.

Is this line very dark? Does Nicky look handsome? The FBI, which was monitoring him, actually monitored that the plane was out of gas. On the one hand, it can be seen that Nicky is really arrogant. Secondly, it can be seen that he is not far from bad luck. Seeing this, I guess either the police will handle it or the old guys in my hometown will handle it. The scenery of the bosses is infinite and different, but the bad times are the same. It's only a matter of time before we go out and get it back.

5. Gamblers and casinos

Wonderful dialogue: Ace rostain: In a casino, the most important rule is to keep playing and keep coming back. The longer they played, the more they lost. In the end, we all got it.

Ace rostain: In a casino, the most important thing is to get them back after the game. The longer they play, the more they lose. In the end, everything belongs to us.

This time, Sam's opponent is a Japanese ghost. I heard that several casinos were destroyed in a bird island. He won money in a casino in Sam and wanted to get on a plane, but Sam wanted someone to do something on the plane. In the end, this Japanese uncle lost everything. This is Sam's view on this matter, which tells us another truth. In the long run. Gamblers can never beat casinos and betting companies.

6. People like wolves

Wonderful dialogue; Nicky is a born villain. He dares to deal with anyone, big or small. If you hit Nicky with your fist, he will hit back with a bat; If you knife him, he will retaliate with a gun. If you point a gun at him, you'd better kill him? Because he will take revenge endlessly until you and one of him die.

If Jiang is a snake-like woman and Uncle Nicky is a wolf-like man, this is an objective description of him. After watching the movie, you will know that this is not exaggeration.

7. Where is this?

Ace rostain: In my hometown, they put me in prison for what I did. Here, they give me awards.

Go home, because they will send me to prison for what I did. Here, they reward me.

This is Las Vegas!

8. Men's Sorrow

Ace rostain: When you love someone, you must trust him. There is no other way. You have to give them the keys to all your things. Otherwise, what's the point For a time, I believed that this was the love I had.

Ace rostain: If you love someone, you must trust him. There is no other way. You must give them the keys to all your things. Otherwise, what's the point I once believed that I had such love.

This sentence itself is correct, but the most terrible thing is that the other person doesn't love you. Sam just didn't see through this all his life, so he failed. I hope you don't do this. Otherwise, as smart as Sam, let alone can't handle this matter, what else?

? The word "fuck" was said 439 times in the film, including the narration. 2.4 times per minute on average.

? Sharon. Si Tong spent many long and unbearable working days on the set. She had an old back injury and wore a 45-pound beaded pajamas in the movie.

? Madonna was considered to play ginger, but Sharon? Si Tong finally persuaded Scorsese to let him play.

? Nicholas, the screenwriter and screenwriter of "Thieves also have a way"? Pelagi Pelagi still wants to write the whole story into a documentary novel and then change it into a script, just like Boy. However, in the whole five-year creative process, he encountered many obstacles. The powerful casino owner and behind-the-scenes personnel are unwilling to confide in him and recall the past. They don't seem to care about writers writing their own books, especially the focus of this book, Frank, nicknamed "left-handed"? Rosenthal. Fortunately, at this time, news came out from the media that Pelaggi's book will be put on the screen by Scorsese, and the protagonist will be Robert? De Niro serves. As a result, the big names in Vegas came to join in the fun, and Rosenthal even volunteered to meet his idol De Niro. Pelagi's creation is finally getting better and better.

? The trick used in playing 2 1 poker is called "spooking the snake", which is highly illegal.

? The whole film was shot in Las Vegas, including the famous Riviera Hotel and the casino on Las Vegas Strip. Fremont Street, where the driving scene was filmed at the beginning of the film, is no longer open to vehicles.

? Characters in movies often come to the set to provide some key information.

? Director Martin? Scorsese hired some real parolees to provide information about the plot, and also hired FBI agents to arrest them.

? There are many details in the film related to good guys, such as Joe? What did Percy do to Frank before she was killed? Vincent said, "What is right is right." Vincent said the same thing before Percy killed him in "Thieves also have a way".

? Sharon attaches great importance to this opportunity. As soon as she arrived at the shooting scene, she kept "harassing" Martin with various questions, which eventually bored the big director. Martin asked her angrily, "Sharon, what do you want?" Sharon said, "I hope you can be hard on me and push me to the extreme that even you didn't expect." Martin agreed. In the later filming, Sharon showed great initiative and put forward many constructive suggestions for the role of Jiang.

? In the Oscar selection, Sharon? Si Tong was nominated for best actress for the first time, even though she lost to Susan? Sarandon, but for her who has been nominated for the worst actress in the Golden Raspberry Award for several years in a row, this is already a miracle.

After watching this movie, the most direct feeling for me is that almost every sentence is a fucking one. Fuck is the essence of American culture. Grandpa Ma Lao's gangster movies are like this. No one's script lines are more direct, vivid, complex and rude than his. Everyone's mouth seems to say flowers, like every punch hits your forehead and then hurts your heart. Dunde? Niro kept shouting? Fuck, fuck, fuck? When is Joe? Patsy stuck the pen in the bastard who angered his best friend, and that kind of refreshment can't be found anywhere else. Martin's films can reveal the deadliest hardliners and the most careless softness in men, because the women in his films will never bring anything good.

Maybe this is the real ecology of Vegas! This is also one of the best works of Grandpa Ma Lao.
