Casino - Sweet Jesus that's longest film I've ever watched in one sitting. And boy was it great. Fantastic performances, superb soundtrack, and, like Zero Dark Thirty, as long as it is, it's still extremely engrossing, as there is a lot of information to take in, especially in the first half an hour when they set up the whole story and characters. Sharon Stone does a good job of playing a complete nutjob. I'm not normally one to complain about violence, but Jesus it was pretty brutal at points, especially at the end.
Having only seen Hugo and Shutter Island prior to my recent viewing, Taxi Driver was my first Scorsese classic, and I was a tad dissapointed. But this did not dissapoint and I look forward to watching his other classic works.
All round 180 minutes well spent. Highly reccomended to those who haven't seen it.
