|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Terry Gilliam's brilliantly weird trip through the desert is not to be missed. |
| Swingers (1996)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Funny and often gut wrenching comedy, and still the best movie these folks have made. |
| Vegas Vacation (1997)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The Vacation movies are always good for a laugh, and Randy Quaid is particularly weird in this one. |
| Leaving Las Vegas (1995)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Why movies about self-destruction seem to be so award-worthy, I'll never know. There are some terrifying scenes with Elizabeth Shue though. |
| Honeymoon in Vegas (1992)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| There are some genuinely funny moments in here somewhere, but you have to get past a louse of a lead character. |

| Rat pack movies leave me in the cold. |
| Ocean's Eleven (2001)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| It's stylish and even and fairly enjoyable once, but it didn't need a sequel. |
| The Cooler (2003)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The romance is so unbelievable that it just never seems to make sense, but Alec Baldwin is great. |
| Las Vegas Lady (1976)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I haven't seen this one, but the poster just SCREAMS 70's action adventure. |
| 3000 Miles to Graceland (2001)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I haven't seen this and it looks bad, but it is set in Vegas. |
| Casino (1995)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| More crime and gangsters and Casino scandals. |
| Viva Las Vegas (1964)
|

Not Rated

|
|
| It's got the King doing lots and lots of cheesy songs, what could be more indicative of the Strip? |
| Bugsy (1991)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I haven't seen this one, but it's a gangster casino picture, so I can imagine it pretty well. |
| Showgirls (1995)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Probably the worst major studio, big budget movie ever made. Trashy doesn't begin to describe it, but it can be fun to watch at parties. |
| Very Bad Things (1998)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This is a mean-spirited black comedy that doesn't do much for the careers of those involved. |
| The Center of the World (2001)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| When movies feature characters that you can't sympathize with, it's hard to get too invested in them. |
| Mars Attacks! (1996)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| When Martians attack, they head straight for Las Vegas. Tom Jones vs. the Martians, what could be better? |
