Bugsy is a character study of mobster Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel wrapped up in a gangster movie. Siegel (Warren Beatty in a flashy performance) arrives in California in the Forties, assigned to oversee the L.A. rackets. He is quickly seduced by both the glamour of Hollywood and actress Virginia Hill (Annette Bening), whom he romances despite being unable to leave his wife and children. Siegel soon has a vision to transform a barren stretch of Nevada desert into an oasis of gambling and

Exhausting in all the wrong ways.
A good example of how character and excellent performances can make a bare-bones story seem rich and complex.
A first-rate production from top to bottom...Beatty has never been more electrifying on screen.
Levinson não consegue retratar a violência da Máfia; Morricone exagera na auto-referência à trilha de Os Intocáveis; e o filme insiste em tratar Siegel, um psicopata, como um empreendedor sonhador. Ainda assim, a história é interessante.
Beatty and Bening are winning.
The Extended Cut DVD includes 15 minutes of additional footage; a new docu, the Reinvention of Bugsy Seigel, with commentary from Warren Beatty, Barry Levinson and others, deleted scenes, and Bugsy "Screen Test" video montage
The disclosure at that Bugsy's $6 million investment in the young city generated over $100 billion might encourage different interpretations: Is Vegas the capital of the American Dream, or the embodiment of crass consumerism?
In seeing the distracting, destructive nature of vanity, the film fascinates itself, and the audience, with a simply stated, terribly complex question: why can't we look away?
One of Beatty's finest achievements
Gloss, but well put-together gloss
Savvy crooks are engaging
classy and fascinating
