ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Above all, however, Kevin Spacey is the reason to see Casino Jack. This movie will stand alongside "The Usual Suspects" and "American Beauty" as examples of what the actor is capable of accomplishing when he is properly motivated.

The Hollywood Reporter - Michael Rechtshaffen
Slick superlobbyist Jack Abramoff is the colorful subject of Casino Jack a similarly slick and undeniably entertaining true-life D.C. crime story, boasting a robust Kevin Spacey performance.

Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
Spacey holds center. He's a bonfire.

Movieline - Stephanie Zacharek
Hickenlooper too often approaches his subject with the filmmaking equivalent of a wry chuckle.

Los Angeles Times - Betsy Sharkey
Though the film is peppered with one-liners tailor-made for Spacey to sling with stinging effect, it doesn't so much leave you laughing as just weary, and wishing this weren't a true story at all.
