Casino Jack is the new documentary by Academy Award winning filmmaker Alex Gibney (Taxi to the Dark Side). Using the wide scope of American corruption as his continuing subject, Gibney puts his focus on Washington and the recent conviction of super lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Through a thorough examination of research Gibney is able to clearly show all the little money schemes and tricks Abramoff and his cohorts were able to pull off through the help of their pals in the legislative and executive branches. That is of course up until they were caught and arrested. For anyone interested in the many problems that face our democracy, Casino Jack and the United States of Money should be well worth your time. B
