Plot
The gangster Bugsy Siegel goes to California in the 1940s, falls for an actress and dreams up Las Vegas.
Sinekatalog’s take
Barry Levinson's gangster biopic is glossy and romantic, tracing Bugsy Siegel's dream of Las Vegas. Warren Beatty and Annette Bening spark, and the film's style outweighs its thin drama.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
