"Atlantic City, Louis Malle's fine new movie, may be one of the most romantic and perverse ghost stories ever filmed, set not in a haunted castle but in a haunted city, the contemporary Atlantic City, a point of transit where the dead and the living meet briefly, sometimes even make love, and then continue on their individual ways."</ref> ''[[The Godfather Part III]]'' (1990),<ref>Hartshorn, Toni.

"Atlantic City may never again get the star treatment it received from director Louis Malle in 1980 with his dreamy, bittersweet film ''Atlantic City.'' But the city does get the proverbial 15 minutes of fame in ''Rounders'', a feature about a pair of go-for-broke poker players that stars Matt Damon and Edward Norton and opens nationally on Friday."</ref> and ''[[Snake Eyes (1998 film)|Snake Eyes]]'' (1998).<ref>Kempley, Rita.

"Nicolas Cage, who sported wings as a somber seraphim in this spring's ''City of Angels,'' returns to more devilish pursuits in Brian De Palma's ''Snake Eyes.'' A glittery but dunderheaded murder mystery set in Atlantic City's Trump Taj Mahal, the movie gives both of these high-rollers a chance to strut and preen."</ref>

"Anyway, Dick Haymes' 'On the Boardwalk (of Atlantic City),' with its soft crooning and inviting mentions of rolling chairs and saltwater air, is all about that version of Atlantic City. The song was featured in the 1946 movie ''Three Little Girls in Blue,'' about three sisters from Red Bank who spend their inheritance on a trip to Atlantic City, where they hope to snare rich husbands."</ref> and "[[Atlantic City (song)|Atlantic City]]" by [[Bruce Springsteen]] (1982).
