He marries Ginger, a beautiful female hustler, and life seems to be smooth sailing. However, things take a sudden turn when Sam's longtime ally, Nikki, arrives in Vegas. Nicky is a violent and destructive man who causes trouble one after another, and this is beginning to affect the management of the casino in no small way.


This movie is three hours long, and I was really prepared for it. However, it is a raging story that never gets boring. The speed and richness of the content, especially in the first half, was amazing.
