The stage is set for a disastrous fall from power, which is hinted at in every scene of the film, but only revealed in the last reel. What is so remarkable about "Casino" is that is seems to be the culmination of several ﬁlms Scorcese has directed over the past few years. Besides the obvious comparisons to the physical violence in "Goodfellas" and "After Hours", some of Scorcese's last film, "The Age of Innocence" appears here - mainly in the form of social commentary and the society of the time. Robert De Niro gives another marvellous performance as Sam Rothstein. He does more than the typical mobster figure from "Goodfellas". he tries to overcome his Mafia ties by immersing himself in the culture of a city where iHegal ways are worshipped. De Niro provides the king around which the kin dom comes crashing down. Sharon Stone, surprising y, is great. She starts out as the typical mon —grubbing woman of dependent means but takes the c aracter to another level as her marriage becomes destructive. Her downward spiral is perhaps the most heart felt in the film, a remarkable feat by Stone since her character is despicable.
