Fear Vegas!-<\/strong> Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was released in\n1998 and was based on an acclaimed novel that depicted the life and times of\nHunter S. Thompson, who was a writer and journalist that sort of loves causing\ntrouble.

Casino- <\/strong>released in 1996, this was directed by Martin\nScorsese and was celebrated for bringing the posh and glamour, as well as the\ningrained corruption of Vegas to a global audience. It features a sterling\ncast, with Robert De Nero playing the anti-hero role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Casino Royale-<\/strong> released in 2006, this movie starred Daniel\nCraig in the role of James Bond and is a remake of the same movie that was\nreleased way back in 1967. It is packed with action and thrills, as well as the\nproverbial spine-chilling suspense, with Bond tasked with ensuring that a\nterrorist financier does not win at the gambling table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sail To Eleven Oceans!-<\/strong> the Ocean\u2019s Eleven movie was released in 2001\nand has since seen lots of sequels. It has an absurdly star-studded cast and is\nall about the most audacious and brilliant casino heist of all time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
