I guess I'll be the first to answer the original question. I would have to go with:
The Godson.
To quote Charlie Brown, "Blech"
That movie was terrible, I am not a fan of Mob Comedies.

Don't get me wrong, I really like comedies and spoofs, if they are funny. But like you said, they carried it on too much. They never do Mob Comedies right, I don't find them funny.

It was OK, not one of my favorites. I didn't like the way DeNiro cried. He is a great actor and all, one of my favorites, but the crying just seemed fake. Maybe that's just me. My Blue Heaven, I haven't seen that in years, but I think I remember it being funny. Although, I don't know about Steve Martin as a mobster, maybe that is why I thought it was funny. Am I mistaken, what did you think of it?

I never saw it, but wasn't there a really lousy 'mob comedy' starring Michael Keaton back in the mid-80's? His moll was Marilu Henner. I remember reviews back then saying it wasn't funny because it was trying too hard to BE funny. Also there was a kiddie mob movie with a very little Jodie Foster, which was deemed a bit too "cutesy", and that bombed too. Apple
A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.

I saw it again last year, not as funny as I remember, but still made me laugh sometimes.
