CASINO JACK lays bare the wild excesses and escapades of Jack Abramoff (Kevin Spacey), a man hell- bent on acquiring all that the good life has to offer. Aided by his business partner Michael Scanlon (Barry Pepper), Jack parlays his clout over some of the world s most powerful men with the goal of creating a personal empire of wealth and influence. When the two enlist a mob-connected buddy (Jon Lovitz) to help with one of their illegal schemes, they soon find themselves in over their heads, entrenched in a world of mafia assassins, murder and a scandal that spins so out of control that it makes worldwide headlines.
