What do you think is the best mafia/gangster movie?
Sorry, I forgot Scarface. If you think Scarface is post it.
My top 10: 1. The Godfather 1 2. GoodFellas 3. The Godfather 2 4. A Bronx Tale 5. Casino 6. Scarface 7. The Godfather 3 8. Bonanno: A Godfather's Story 9. Once Upon A Time In America 10. Hoodlum
'This was just another Bronx tale.'

my favourite is Godfather Part 1. Closely followed by Scarface and Goodfellas. Whats great about Goodfellas and Scarface is the one-liners  , But the Godfather has a better story line.

Donnie Brasco is my favourite, closely followed by Bronx Tale and Carlito's Way.
I agree with Freddie C, I don't really class godfather as a Gangster movie - it's in a class of it's own.

"Miller's Crossing" and "Road To Perdition" deserve mention.
"Hoodlum", except for Tim Roth's performance, was terrible IMO

So far, i am the only one who chose Casino. It was the first "mob" movie i ever saw, and it contains my two greatest fasinations, gambling, and organized crime. Also topping my list are Goodfellas, GF I and II, A Bronx Tale, and not mentioned: Carlitos Way
Bart, Is it wrong to steal a loaf of bread to feed your starving family? No. Well suppose you got a large starving family, is it wrong to steal a truckload of bread to feed them? Uh-uh. And what if your family don't like bread, they like cigarettes? I guess thats ok. Now what if instead of giving them away, you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away. Would that be a crime Bart?
