Homer Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Just finished watching this on CH4, how brilliant is that film! Superb acting from De Niro, Liotta, Pesci and pretty much all the rest. One of the best ever gangster films IMO, with a poignant ending. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Brilliant film The first time I saw it I'd only seen Jo Pesci in Leathal Weapon, in his funny little man guise. How shocked was I! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 come on, you must have seen him in home alone!! dont lie! Ah yes, you're right! Still, I was shocked seeing him knife the guy in the boot of the car, I kept expecting him to get smacked round the head by Danny Glover or something.

Kieran Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Goodfellas is the best film ever! Shit-hot acting and two of the best dialogues: "Eversince I can remember, I wanted to be a gangster..." and "...Funny how? Like a clown?!" Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 My fav film ever too, must have seen it 20+ times, even bought the book the film was based on, called Wiseguy, had to have it imported from the US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 One of the best films ever made and the film that should have earned Scorsese an Oscar instead of that remake of Infernal Affairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjodrell Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 One of my all time favorites along with the Godfather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millsy Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Great film. Actually just thought, films where one of the characters in also narrating the thing always seem quite good. Goodfellas with Liotta doing it, Shawshank Redemption with Morgan Freeman - well that's two, but both amazing films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I still haven't seen this film. I caught about 20 mins last night before I went to sleep but it does look very good. You can't beat De Niro and Ray Liotta from an acting point of view, they are proper mentalists!! H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Explain to your place of work that you're going to see Goodfellas for the first time. They'll understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest StevenSheen Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Yeah good film, I prefer casino though... the little man is pretty evil in that too...esp when you give him a mans head and a vice to play with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Goodfellows is a masterpiece, Goodfellows has it all in just one film, The Godfather took 3 parts and it is still not better than Goodfellows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R3DG3CKO ROB Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Awesome movie I love it - Always good to see some of Samuel L Jacksons earlier work too.... Joe Pesci is one scary mofo IMO - never cross a short person, they have more to proove than the rest of us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jspec Germany Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 One of the best ever???? Come on. "How dare he" - H.F. "Lean forward and choke yourself" - R.L.E. Goodfellas (spelled that way for a reason) is a must-own, and gives perspective you can't get from one of the (I'm sorry, but they drag on) Godfather films or (again, I'm sorry) the sad attempt to better it: Casino.
