SunCruz Casino


The casino cruise line that Abramoff is recruited to buy up is presented in the film as "SunSail Casino". The real name was SUNCRUZ CASINO. I can only imagine the film producers went with a fictional name, as the casino cruise ship still is in business, and would have brought the current owners bad publicity.

Incidentally, I stopped by one a couple weeks ago and was interested in going out into international waters to gamble on the boat. As it was 9pm at the time, and the last boat had gone out at 7pm, I was told I had to come back another day. At that time, I had not even heard of the movie "Casino Jack", though I was familiar enough with Jack Abramoff. I did not realize that he'd owned SunCruz Casino. Now I'm glad I missed the boat.

I use to work for Sun Cruz casino ! It was great! I knew the owner - Gus Boulis ! He was a very honest and respected Gentlemen! For a few times Adam Kidan show his face on the boat , after he and his "friends" bought the company , it was a feeling, that he is afraid of his own shadow, security, body guards, secrecy, TV stations ..... and total disrespect to all , from casino manager to valley guys!
After working at Sun Cruz for 5 years at that time , when Gus Boulis was the owner, it was just disgusting feeling towards Kidan! Mr.Bullis was not only the owner, he was a human been, he had no problem to park the cars, if he noticed, that is too many costumers arrived to the parking lot in the same time, he had no problem to fix the sink in the casino kitchen, not calling the maintenance gays , when the employee bus was late to take us to the parking lot - he had no problem to give us a ride! He was not only our Boss , he was like a friend to us! We miss him very much!
Abramov, Kidan, and all of other criminals not only killed a good and honest man, they took the father from Gus sons, they made more, than 500 people loose they jobs, they violated peoples Trust and now, when the trial for Gus Boulis murder is almost over, i hope they will get what they deserve !
