Goodfellas, all The Godfathers, Scarface, Gangster Squad, Pulp Fiction, The Departed, Untouchables, are probably my favorites.
But every movie that’s been named so far I’ve seen, and love them all. Truth is I had a hard time picking favorites, when thinking of my list, they all are such good movies.

Godfather 1 & 2 are my two favorite movies of all time. Goodfellas and Casino are duking it out for 3 & 4. Donnie Brasco is great. Kill The Irishman about Danny Green is really good. The Irishman about Frank Sheeran is really good. Heat is awesome. Blow is one of my all time favorite movies. Bronx Tale is amazing. American Gangster. True Romance. Reservoir Dogs. Pulp Fiction. ****, I almost forgot The Departed. Black Mass. Hoodlum. Hoffa. New Jack City. The Untouchables. Scarface.

Layer Cake is another good one that I don't think has been mentioned yet.

If you haven't see Lock Stock, you need to make that a high priority.

Forgot about it, but... 'The Iceman' is also a pretty good flick. Michael Shannon did an eerily good job of portraying Kuklinski.
watching that today lol

I'm not sure if you've ever watched the actual jail interviews with Kuklinski... but it really is crazy how good of a job Shannon did. Considering the cast it's weird it didn't get a little bit more attention.

He made a lot of claims about various things involving the Gambino family when interviewed... some people debate how much of it is true though.


And if you really wanna watch The Godfather... https://www1.watchserieshd.bz/movie/the-godfather-q9o3/1-full

Anyone here seen this movie called "God the Father"

I follow Michael Franzese since he got out the can and he's def interesting. His dad sonny was no joke back in the day.

Putting it on watch list.

Does reservoir dogs count as a gangster movie?
If it doesn't I don't know what does.... "Daddy's gonna be pissed", the good die young....

I'll throw in Killing Zoe as well, bank robbery flick from the same era and lesser known Tarantino film. Classic tho
