Atlantic City (1980)
7/10
Great entertainment
1 January 2013
This is a fun movie. The cast is great, the story has a bit of everything: wit, emotion, love, action... and the pace is just right.

What makes it all "fit" in a way is the "Atlantic City atmosphere". It just works to glue it all together (helped of course by the great direction). And when all the parts in a film click together, good quality cinema is always made.

It's actually really hard to create a movie about an old man who goes back to his "gangster" life and succeed in making it believable. There are funny moments, there are nervous and sad moments, this movie entertains.

Why should we ask more of it? Anyone could enjoy this film. I'm surprised it doesn't have many ratings.
