Trivia
Most of the conversations between Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci were improvised. Martin Scorsese would tell them where to start and where to end. The rest was up to them.

Goofs
The sound of shoes walking on floor is heard in the bedroom when Ginger returns to Ace after he throws her out of the house. The bedroom is carpeted, so Ginger's shoes shouldn't have made any sound.

Quotes
Ace Rothstein: [to Don] Listen to me very carefully. There are three ways of doing things around here: the right way, the wrong way, and the way that *I* do it. You understand?

Crazy credits
"This is a fictional story with fictional characters adapted from a true story."

Alternate versions
Finnish VHS release is cut by 1 minute. Notable cuts were:
Tony Dogs being tortured with the vice
Baseball bat killings

Nothing you haven't seen before, Robert De Niro performs in a similar style to several he established his career playing and Joe Pesci can only play himself no matter what the role calls for. If organised crime capers are your thing, or you're a casino denizen, it's lucky 7s all round for you, although, on this occasion, it's complemented and elevated through an outstanding performance by Sharon Stone. She steals the picture as the addicted to anything femme fatale opportunist most men would aspire to tame and, if they did get that chance, they would soon discover the trophy wife from hell - Sam did, but don't let that put you off.
