    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.

    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    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.

    Yeah Scarface was good in the 1980's but it was also good in 1932 when it was originally made.
