De Niro, Joe Pesci both perform their roles well and Sharon Stone provides one of her better performances in film. Directed be Martin Scorsese he continues the use of voice overs to provide a documentary feel similar to his previous film, "Goodfellas".

Overall this movie gives the viewer a good sense of how Las Vegas casinos were well ran by certain factions of the mob and the fall of the system mob bosses had going until the system fell apart.
