Media: Casino (1995)

This Martin Scoresese film portrays the alluring life of power, money, and glam in Las Vegas.  Starring Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone, and Joe Pesci, Casino reveals the greedy and dangerous lives of mob involvement in casinos during the 1970’s and 80’s.  The acting is incredible and De Niro’s narration throughout the film makes things more personal and real.  I agree with Rotten Tomatoes’ score of 80%
