Yeah, I am the guy that sees a movie 3 years after it comes out and mentions just seeing it, then I get you hadn't seen that yet!!! :oops:

This is an amazing and stunning admission. This movie is easily one of the greatest of all time.

Hawg Ass, it is time for you to go get your shinebox.

I laugh as a thread I opened about BS speeches turns to talk about Goodfellas.

I'm the same as most of you,when I find it on,I usually leave it on. :lol:

A 'one of the greatest' type movie doesn't die a slow death for the last 15-20 minutes.

I viewed Goodfellas last year for the first time, mostly due to the love for the movie here and with some of the gentlemen on the radio. I was thoroughly unimpressed- by far the most overhyped movie from one of the most overhyped movie genres. Don't waste your time, you have heard enough of it already.

Leash,I will tell you two movies I suggest you see. Both are British crime/mob movies. Great casts and just plain good movies.
Layer Cake and In Bruges.

Lunacy. Terrible opinion.

The ending is perfect. It makes is real. They could have ended it earlier but that wouldnt have been a true portrait of what they were showing.

Liotta was perfect as a coked out guy too. Great acting.

Thanks Chas. If I can find them, I'll check them out. Just watched "The Butler" this weekend. Pretty good.

I recommend A Bronx Tale for those of you who enjoyed Goodfellas. I feel that movie was underrated.

In Bruges is excellent. I second that recommendation. Although I will await Don Tiny's take on the last fifteen (15) minutes.

Thank you for your honesty. The movie was not that good.

Mickey Mantle? Is that what you're upset about? Mickey Mantle makes $100,000 a year. How much does your father make? You don't know? Well, see if your father can't pay the rent go ask Mickey Mantle and see what he tells you. Mickey Mantle don't care about you, so why should you care about him? Nobody cares.

Backstage a reporter remarked that she was the first Aussie to win 2 ,her remark"And don't you fucking forget it"

It was entirely uninteresting. It was like they didn't want to end it on time and threw some scenes together hastily.

Story-wise it makes sense; execution-wise it blows, particularly when compared to the rest of the movie which was, in fact, "one of the greatest" level.

Its a different tone from the rest of the film but to me it's still good. I love them getting busted. I love the helicopter part.

And Liotta on the stand. Also it was honest. It didnt paint it as some fairy tale.

I'm going to second that, Leash. In Bruges is great and Layer Cake is pretty damn good.

Watch them.

And then take your date to a suburban restaurant and upon returning home you should write a review of it on CFSMB stating that it was pretty good! and then go on to say that it wasn't terrible.

Layer Cake is fucking awesome. Its the most Guy Ritchiest movie not involving Guy Ritchie , ever. It's certainly the best use of Duran Durans "Ordinary World" you'll ever see rendered .

To me the most realistic mob movie is Donnie Brasco. Every other film in the genre glamorizes mobsters and mob life to some degree. This one felt appropriately desperate. The goofs trying to bust up a parking meter because they were under so much pressure to kick up is a great scene.

I agree with you about Donnie Brasco.

The first and last few scenes of Goodfellas highlight very well why men choose to live in that type of culture.
