I have no problem with Casino. I love Casino & own it as well. I was just very disappointed with Mean Streets. I watched it twice & forced myself to like it, but IMO, it blew compared to Goodfellas & Casino.

Without doubt the worst gangster film is actually "Road to Perdition". The best are the Godfather Part 1 and 2

GF and GFII excluded I think Once Upon A Time In America is the best, followed by Casino and Goodfellas.

Worst: The Sicilian, what a pathetic movie.

I don't know about anyone else, but I like the mob-spoof "Mafia!". I'm not saying it's the best or even close to the best, but I really enjoyed seeing a parody of my favorite movie genre.

The best one is gotta be The Godfather Parts I and II. The worst is "Knockyaround Guys".

Exluding The Godfather Parts I and II, because those would easily take the cake (for me anyway), I choose Goodfellas. Once Upon A Time In America is close behind that.

I agree with you all that Dilinger and Capone and The Sicilian were pathetic. Road to Perdition wasnt a bad movie, it wasnt a great gangster flick, but it was good. As for Casino, thats my favorite movie and Scorsese, like all his other movies, did a fantastic job. I didnt care for Mean Streets at all, even though its a classic.

The worst mob movie i can think of is Hoodlum and Dillinger and Capone. My favorites aside from Casino are Goodfellas, GF I and II, Scarface, and the most underated, A Bronx Take and Carlitos Way.


Bart, Is it wrong to steal a loaf of bread to feed your starving family? No. Well suppose you got a large starving family, is it wrong to steal a truckload of bread to feed them? Uh-uh. And what if your family don't like bread, they like cigarettes? I guess thats ok. Now what if instead of giving them away, you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away. Would that be a crime Bart?

Wow, some of you lot need to see (A LOT) more gangster flicks if you consider Mean Streets, Casino. The Godfather Part III etc the worst! :rolleyes:

Love, Honour and Obey would get the nod from me. Either that or Prizzi's Honor. I found The Krays very overrated, but it is by far not the worst. Scarface, if it can even be considered a Mob film, is a candidate for worst too.

As for the best: as a Mob film, Goodfellas or One Upon a Time in America are the best. The Godfather is THE best film, but it has strong family overtones, and the Mafia theme could have been many things, really. Mob RELATED films that are excellent: Raging Bull, Casino and Mean Streets. Donnie Brasco is also very good (thought I hear the book is better), while I also recommend The Long Good Friday and Sexy Beast.

The book Donnie Brasco is a great read, maybe more enjoyable than the movie. I was considering to add Prizzis Honor to my collection, but if you (and others agree) that is not a good movie, i will hold off making my purchase.

Well, never put off seeing a movie but I suggest that if you rent movies, rent it first, or wait for it to come on TV. Jack Nicholson seems a little awkward in handling his role, and Kathleen Turner never really gets going. Ajelica Huston got the Best Supporting Actress that year, though her performance is very unmemorable. Overall, it takes way too long to get going, the narrative is messy, and you won't remember for long once you've seen it. Very unsatisfactory.

Well I have to say Godfather I is my favorite anything. You just can't say enought about the movie. Without its unbelievable success I wonder if the mob genre would have exploded the way it did.I will say this about Goodfellas it gives a look into the real world of the Mafia more than the Godfather I think.
As for worst mob movie I would go and say that Knockaround guys would get the nod.
I'm also going to mention Once Upon a Time in America not b/c I think it is one of the worst mob movies. I think its great but it started so slow and moved unbelieveable slow at times. Still great though.

The worst would be "I, Mobster" (1958) or "Inside the Mafia" (1959), which are so bad and miscast as to be laughable.
The best MOB film, strictly speaking, is "Goodfellas." GF and II are the best films ever made, imo, but they're not mob films--they're films about a family, with the mob as a defining milieu. I make an analogy with "Gone With the Wind": It isn't a Civil War movie, it's a movie about a family, with the Civil War as the defining milieu.

I agree, "The Sicilian" sucks. Witness to the mob is close to it to get the honors. and I'm surprised no one mentioned Wisegirls. a mob flick starring Mariah Carey (!?) it's really a shit.

the best in my opinion are The Godfather I and II, with GoodFellas and Pulp Fiction (if you consider it a mob film) close.

I felt that Tom Sizemore was an excellent John Gotti, and I thought the movie told the true story of the Gambino crime family quite well.

Mick [/b][/quote]You thought Angelica Houston's performance was unmemorable? I have to disagree with you on that one. SHe was outstanding! Let us not forget that this was a comedy, not a serious movie, and Angelica's parody of an Italian Mobsters spoiled brat daughter was really funny. Not a serious movie at all, just an enjoyable comedy. I don't consider Prizzi's Honor a Mob Movie in the ranks of Goodfellas, Casino, Once Upon A time, etc. But more in the ranks of a Married to the Mob type comedy. On the original question asked in this post : The Best All TIme Mob Movie : Godfather!
The Worst : Witness For The Mob ( Sammy Gravano movie played by Nick Tuturro). Terrible and cheaply made. Tom Sizemore was the only good thing about that movie.
