This week on Nostalgia Check presented by BJ in the Morning, we’re watching Martin Scorsese’s 1995 crime epic Casino for the very first time.
Did one of the greatest gangster films ever made live up to decades of hype? We break down the biggest moments, discuss Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone, and Joe Pesci’s performances, dive into IMDb and Letterboxd reviews, and decide if Casino passes the Nostalgia Check.
At the end of the episode, we spin the wheel to decide what comes next, and it lands on 2010. That means our next watch will be The Social Network.
If you enjoy movie discussions, first-time watches, nostalgic rewatches, and honest reviews, be sure to subscribe and let us know what movie we should cover next.
What did you think of Casino? Is it one of Scorsese’s best films, or do you still prefer Goodfellas?

What happens when you revisit the movie that changed animation forever?
This week on Nostalgia Check, we’re taking a fresh look at Toy Story (1995), Pixar’s groundbreaking first feature film that introduced the world to Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and a whole new era of animated movies.
We break down the biggest story moments, discuss what still works nearly 30 years later, revisit IMDb and Letterboxd audience reviews, share behind-the-scenes facts, and decide whether Toy Story still deserves its legendary reputation.
Does the friendship between Woody and Buzz still hit the same? Does the animation hold up? Is this still one of Pixar’s greatest films?
At the end of the episode, we give our official Nostalgia Check verdict and score to answer the biggest question:
Does Toy Story (1995) still pass the Nostalgia Check?

It's a first-time watch of The Details (2011) starring Tobey Maguire, Elizabeth Banks, Ray Liotta, Laura Linney, and Dennis Haysbert.
Neither of us had seen this overlooked dark comedy before, so we went in completely blind. We break down the movie’s biggest moments, discuss the performances, share IMDb and Letterboxd reviews, and decide whether this strange suburban morality tale deserved more attention or was forgotten for a reason.
Can a movie about raccoons, lies, guilt, and increasingly terrible decisions become a hidden classic? Or is it simply one of the strangest films of 2011?
In this episode:
First time watching The Details
IMDb and Letterboxd audience reviews
Plot breakdown and key moments
Our final score
Does The Details pass the Nostalgia Check?
