Some even assume that it is the oldest form of table games. Because of its increasing popularity, roulette has played a key role in pop culture and media.
Movies about online casinos and roulette, in general, enjoy great popularity. In the following article, we will have a look at the top roulette movies of all time.
Gold
Canada, summer 1898. The height of the Gold Rush - A group of German settlers is on their way to the far north, towards Dawson. There, in the Klondike, in the newly discovered mines, everyone can instantly get rich, you have to go 2000 kilometers, and then find a gold mine. But the reason to go on this dangerous trip is not only a thirst for profit. The journalist Gustav dreams of becoming famous, and the cowboy Carl hopes to escape from the persecution of the killers. Only the motives of the cold beauty Emily, who endures the hardships of the journey, are at first unclear.
Croupier
Jack Manfred is an aspiring writer who, suffering from writer's block, takes a job as a casino croupier to support his literary ambitions. Jack watches the players with the same cold indifference that he has when writing his novel. He never places bets himself, but when a seductive beauty and a casino regular draws him into a dangerous but potentially lucrative scam, Jack believes fortune is on his side. He does not suspect that soon the temptations of the game will captivate him much more than he could imagine.
Croupier is perhaps one of the best movies when it comes to roulette and casinos. As the popularity of the film grew, it established itself in the online gambling industry. Numerous live roulette casinos started featuring Clive Owen (the actor who plays Jack), on their banners and this marketing strategy worked perfectly.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Two swindlers - swindlers who hunt rich ladies for money - are complete opposites to each other: one of them, Lawrence, has thought out a clear system of scam and works together with several assistants, often breaking a big jackpot. The second crook, Freddie, is inexperienced, one might even say naive, enjoys even small profits and works alone. One day, Lawrence spots Freddie on a train and, deciding that he has potential, is going to teach him the art of cheating.
Ocean’s Thirteen
