Greatest mob movie of all time?

[Mook]

No poll b/c of how many varied opinions there can be...but honestly, I gotta go with Casino. Not only is is a masterpiece as a movie, but its one of the few movies I can watch multiple times in during a 24 hour period and not want to turn it off. It if its on, I'm watching it.

Thoughts?

There are quite a few good ones. Casino is up there...so is Godfather, The Departed, Goodfellas, and The Usual Suspects. Not necessarily in that order.

Casino Aka Goodfellas 2.

Goodfellas > Casino.

The Godfather > Goodfellas.

I like Quentin Tarantino's stuff. Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction are my favs.

Godfather I and II all time great classic, III is kinda misunderstood I think its all about trying to make amends for past sins... Donnie Brasco, Casino, Good-fellas, for movies. The Sicilian (Puzzo), Gangster (Lorenzo Carcaterra), The Last Don (Puzzo) for books

I'd have to say that the best mob movie of all time is the coverage video of the Rodney King Riots. Some of the angriest mob action ive seen. derp

 

[Spivitz]

I like all mentioned, if I had to pick my fav it would be the The Godfather movies.

The Godfather is obviously way up there and is another one I can basically watch multiple times a day.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I need to watch the entire godfather movie. I hate to admit I've only seen bits and pieces of it.

Did no one mention scarface?

Do that. Tonight.

 

[99PONTIACGP]

I don't care for the Godfather movies. Maybe because the length.

I like Goodfellas and Bronx tale equally over Casino but a good one also.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Those are both good movies too. Bronx tale is a bit soft for a mob movie but still good.

 

[Mook]

Bronx is good but as joel said, its more of a "coming of age" story.

Carlitos Way isnt really a "mob" movie either, but I love that too.

 

[moviebuff]

The Departed fo sho. Pulp is a fav and Usual Suspects is good

 

[importcrew]

Everything mentioned is good. Even the books that were mentioned.

 

[Shocker]

Goodfellas. Scarface is more gangster film then mob

 

[ktraver97ss]

Goodfellas. Scarface is more gangster film then mob

Werd, Pulp and Usual Suspects aren't mob movies either, but they are great flicks. I love Goodfellas and Casino equally, not sure one is really better than the other, but I am not a big godfather nutswinger like most.

Goodfellas and Bronx Tale

 

[Mook]

Bronx Tale over Casino? No way.

 

[VenomousDSG]

Departed is my favorite movie personally, but Goodfellas is probably the best mob movie.

I thought The Godfather sucked actually, boring as hell.

 

[Sprayin]

I thought Bronx Tale was retarded.

 

[Mook]

I thought Bronx Tale was retarded.

How come?

 

[Sprayin]

How come?

The story was stupid, the acting was terrible. The only decent role in the movie was Chazz Palminteri and I think he plays a better swindler than a mob guy. The lead role was a whiney little bitch.
