Mob movies

[mysterious]

I really like mob and gang movies and was wondering if anybody could recommend me any good ones.

Heres a list of the mob movies I have seen.

Blood in Blood out

GodFather 1,2,&,3

Hoodlum

Mobsters

KingPin

Sopranos seasons 1-5

American Me

Carlitos Way

Carlitos Way : rise to power

[Green Demon]

Can really think of many right now but I know a really good one that I am surprised you havent seen would be Goodfellas.

[Toe]

I always put Scarface in with those movies also, even though it may not be exactly what you are looking for.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

Goodfellas is a must. The Departed got a huge ammount of praise, I'm watching it later. I'd also recommend Road to Perdition.

[Fitzy]

The Departed is a must. Also see Donnie Brasco.

And according to Ringo, Once Upon a Time In America, Miller's Crossing, and the Untouchables are all good (I have them but haven't seen them).

Also, if you are willing to watch a mob TV show, too, get Brotherhood. It is only $20 which is a steal for such an awesome show. And the Black Donnelly's is worth watching.

I don't know if that KingPin is the NBC miniseries or not, but either way, get the NBC miniseries Kingpin as that was great.

I liked Donnie Brasco. Other than that, Goodfellas is a definite, as is the Departed.

[Toe]

The Departed was the best movie of 2006 in my opinion, so that is a must watch.

[Enter Blue Guy]

Goodfellas is one of my favorite movies, so I'd recommend that along with Casino.

[Farmer Reil]

Get Carter?

Haven't seen it, but apparently it's good.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

The Cooler's a very interesting exploration of luck, but is based around a casino with a pretty brutal and unforgiving owner played by Alec Baldwin

[Mick]

Casino (Directed by Scorsese and starring Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci)

Bugsy

A Better Tomorrow (it was made in Hong Kong)

[mysterious]

Ive seen Scarface, Goodfellas, Donnie Brasco, the Untouchables, and Casino.

Would Get Shorty & Be Cool count?

[Guest Ringu]

If we're counting gang and crime movies, then you must, must, must watch Bonnie & Clyde.

Also, Mean Streets hasn't been mentioned yet, and it's quality.

The Wire is great but it is mostly cops vs. the drug dealers, so no, not really.
