Hello im new on these boards and i would like to know if you could help me. I have seen Godfather, ScarFace, Goodfellas, and Casino. These all great movies but are there any other gangster, mobster movies that are good? I asked my friend and he dosent know any. Can you guys help me out.

Try looking for Donnie Brasco, Once Upon a Time in America, Carlito's Way, Mean Streets. . . those are a must see. that's all i have in mind right now i'm sure other members will give you some more.

Old classics:
On The Waterfront (haven't seen)
That's about it as far as classic 50's go for me, but I'm sure there are loads to be added!

Welcome to the BB!

Is donnie brasco and Donnie Darko same or different movies and is a bronx tale a good movie? Is that even gangster related?

Donnie Brasco is different from Donnie Darko. See the spelling? (joke) Donnie Brasco is based from a true story which stars Al Pacino, Johnny Depp, and Michael Madsen. don't know what Darko is about, have'nt seen the movie.

There you go.

Any Quentin Tarantino flick you can get your hands on; Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, True Romance, Natural Born Killers, From Dusk 'Till Dawn, Crimson Tides.

if you can find "City of God" don't hesitate to watch it. its a brazilian film based on a true story. its not dubbed in english so have to read the subtitles, its very much worth the watch.

Goodfellaoggie? When was it realeased. Would you mind giving a plot summary?It sounded very interesting; I saw a preview and a trailer of it; my understanding has it that is was filmed in Rio De Janeiro, Brazi. Am I right? Thank you in advance.

Guineapig.

this was released this year Guineapig. this is filmed in the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro. its about a group of small time hoodlums who later become the most dangerous criminal. the story of two brothers and their childhood friends, based on a true story. this is the farthest i can go my friend i don't want to spoil it. believe me, its one of the best movies i've seen.

Witness To The Mob (TV) based on the real life story of John Gotti and Sammy da Bull Gravano.

They are very different movies. But I am interested to know, how are you familiar with Donnie Darko?
