Prime player status at jack casino12/9/2023 Correct me if I'm wrong but future generations are going to think Abramoff committed worse crimes than casting Dolph Lundgren in a movie.Īctually, his crimes really are not that interesting, compared to the ripple effects as the documentary makes an intelligent case for regulation(I think I have read about the labor situation in the Northern Mariana Islands elsewhere.), public funding of elections and continued existence of newspapers as the Washington Post again follows the money. Whereas it might be necessary to say how fond they were of spy pulp novels and Indiana Jones(John Kennedy was also fond of spy novels and look where that got us in Vietnam), too much time is spent on these quirky details with footagle of Tom Delay on "Dancing with the Stars" playing over the end credits. A lot of the frustration comes from the movie's first half, detailing Abramoff's ideological origins with campus Republicans. "Casino Jack and the United States of Money" is an insightful, yet occasionally frustrating documentary about the rise and fall of Jack Abramoff, superlobbyist, able to sidestep regulations in a single bound but who would eventually be taken down by his own type of kryptonite.
