If you haven't seen it, go rent 'Get Shorty'. Its with John Travolta, Danny De Vito, Renee Russo,Gene Hackman, James Gandolfini and a whole bunch of people. Its hilarious. Travolta is a mobster who goes Hollywood. Dennis Farina is especially good as Ray Bones. See this film and tell me if you agree or disagree!

"Mobsters" isn't the worst gangster film I've ever seen (I go back a long way). But it's pretty bad.
"Casino" is a class act. It doesn't have the bang-bang action and mordant humor of "Goodfellas." Instead you get long, detailed, lavish view of the casino industry, DeNiro's best performance since "Goodfellas," Pesci more vicious than before, fine casting, and a great performance from Sharon Stone.
Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.

Know who I also thought did a pretty good job in Casino? Don Rickles. While he had a small role in the movie, I thought that he was pretty convincing in the part that he played. Don Cardi

Something we disagree on!  Rickles was God-awful bad in that role. I've seen him too many times on "The Johnny Carson Tonight Show" to picture him in any other role, and he looks too much like a lizard.

[/b][/quote] I thought that Manolo was the one who Tony said looked like a lizard! See, from Rickles appearances on the tonight show, and seeing him do his standup over the years, he always looked and acted like a schmuck. Then when I saw that he was in Casino, I was expecting the "schmuck" character to appear, but instead he played a serious part, and I felt he was convincing in his small part. SC, my most valued and trusted friend, it is fine that we may disagree on something, even if it's the first time in over 3 years, BUT don't EVER take sides against the family in a public forum again!
