Public Enemies (which will be out soon) ;D ....is going to be awesome. And it's written, directed, and produced by Michael Mann, the same dude who wrote, directed, and produced Heat and Miami Vice.....So I expect some great action sequences
THERE'S ONLY ONE DAVID HAYE...ONE DAVID HAYE...WALKING ALONG...SINGING A SONG...WALKING IN A HAYEMAKWER WONDERLAND!Quote:

Actually it was written by Chazz Palminteri, the actor who plays Sonny. Its loosely based on real life events he went through, as a kid growing up in the Bronx. Like in real life as a teenager he went went out with a black girl if i remember rightly, hence why that was a big part of the film.Quote:

Mullholand drives was very good, same thing for New Jack city, Scarface is a classics, I think that the godfather is um-beatable though. i've seen a very interesting documentary about the Noonan family in Manchester, it's called a very British gangster, they were following Dominic Noonan, only a glimpse of what the family is involved in but indeed, a very interesting documentary.
Mafia style ones
Godfather I
Godfather II
Casino
Goodfella's
Miller's Crossing <-------Think I'm the first to mention that one.
The Departed
Thug style ones
Menace II Society
Colors
New Jack City
Gangster movies are my favorite I went on a binge of them recently, excellent stuff some of these. Most I agree with, City of God was fucking awesome and one of the best shot movies ever imo. Casino, obviously great Pesci performance he was tops in that one and DeNiro was awesome. I made a whole list of 10 movies then went back to find the ones that weren't mentioned and only one remained.
Eastern Promises - One of the grittiest movies I've ever seen with a very intriguing storyline that involves the Russian mob and a few different interweaving storylines and it brings up a lot of emotion from the mentally challenged, sex trafficking to harming an infant it deals with a lot. Viggo Mortenson plays one of the most badass characters ever and has some of the coolest dialog for a character in a mafia movie ever. Has a few shocking moments, not the least of which is Viggo Mortenson fighting to the death butt naked in one of the most gruesome fight scenes ever.
Blood in Blood out
American me
Scarface
Goodfellas
Eastern Promises
i had a copy of eastern promise but the sound was very poor so i will have to get another one as i have always fancied that movie.Quote:

Yeah Scarface was good in the 1980's but it was also good in 1932 when it was originally made.Quote:
