favourite gangster movies of all time

• Goodfellas
• Godfather
• Scarface
• Pulp Fiction
• Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels

I like Alpha Dog, Fernando Vargas was in that movie too. I think he did well for his character but Justin Timberlake suprise me on how well he can act. This is a sad true story, it reminds me of friends i knew in the past.

Scarface is a popular gangster movie but if you stop and think about it, Tony Montana is full of bullshit.

Godfather I, II, III were all good but I especially like part I. Btw guys is Brandon Marlon a native american? Did anybody see when he won the oscar? I always consider guys in these movie as the ones to look up to not these street gangsters we saw everyday. I always said if you gonna be a gangster do it the right way.

Street Kings I consider that a gangster movie some may not but them boys in blue were more gangster then them boys they were locking up.

GoodFellas I like also.

I can't remember the title of it but I also like the movie were Robert Dinero was a father to a kid who gets invovle with the local mafia. Anybody remembet the title?

Goodfellas,Untouchables,there good;)

Donnie Brasco
Paid In Full
Infernal Affairs
Brother (the hardest gangster film there is)
City of God
Goodfellas

Goodfellas. I think that's the best gangster film by a mile.

Yeah I have. Dumbass yank. Goodfellas pisses on them both.

I'm probably the only person who feels this way, but I thought Scarface was a mediocre film at best.

I've seen A Bronx Tale mentioned a few times, I love that movie. Written and directed by De Niro.

Nope agreed. Scarface was good, but special ? No way. Reservoir Dogs is so overrated. I'ld rather watch paint dry than watch Reservoir Dogs again. The only good scene is where the guy gets his ear cut off lol.

Godfather I and II; Goodfellas, Casino and American Me.

I thought Scarface was stupid personally.

Surprised really no one has mentioned American Me with edward James Olmos; on par with Blood In Blood Out. Wlliam Forsythe was awesome in this movie.

K junior...you clearly don't know what you're talking about, The Godfather is THE BEST gangster film of all time.

Gangs of New York is decent...it's alot different than the book but it's still pretty good I think.

A couple of my favs in no particular order are.

Carlitos Ways - the original one with Pacino
Donnie Brasco
Godfather
Godfather II
Gotti
Goodfellas
Casino

I can't wait to check out Public Enemies that looks really good.

American me
Godfather 1/2
Colors
Lock stock & two smoking barrels
King of New York
Romper Stomper :-X
A Bronx tale

may favs of all time are

Usual suspects
Carlitos Ways
Donnie Brasco
Goodfellas
Casino

that movie was a pretty damn good one. Jude law plays that crazy hit man. I actually think I bought this DVD awhile ago, I need to watch it again.

City of God is a damn good one. So is Paid in Full

City of God is mine.

Loads of other good ones though. Donnie Brasco, Goodfellas, Godfather 1/2/3, Carlito's Way, Lock Stock, Snatch, Pulp Fiction, Scareface,

Keep it

Godfather part two is my favourite. I never get tired of it. I like a fair few gangster flicks. I agree with Lyle about Casino as I think that has become a somewhat underrated Scorsese flick.
