Sleepers is damned good if you like that kinda thing. And being a Goodfellas/Godfather/Scarface kinda man, I'm sure you do. If you're not sure, rent them first, then you'll know for sure. If you've not seen Casino or Carlito's Way I guarantee you'll love them, they're the sorta follow-ups to Goodfellas and Scarface respectively. Get those ASAP man.

For something different, see From Dusk Till Dawn- one half crime, one half horror. Desperados vs. Vampires Great stuff. Narc, Snatch, Blade Runner, Escape from New York, Ronin, and Full Metal Jacket are some other great, offbeat movies. Unless you're one of those people that only watches high-brow Oscar winning stuff.
