Bugsy (about Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel)

Has anybody seen this mob movie? I just saw it last night on Netflix for the first time and I have to say it is very well done and quite good. It has won tons of awards and I read that the film often flies under the radar of most people because it came out around the same time as Goodfellas.

I highly recommend checking it out.

Actually, I watched it two years ago and was surprised that I liked it so much. Couldn't quite get used to Ben Kingsley as Meyer Lansky though.

What I always found funny is that it came out in the same year as Goodfellas, yet the movie seems much older.

I like the movie very much. At times I thought it was too "light hearted" but maybe that is what set it apart from others? Beatty & Bening were terrific.

Too many historical inaccuracies to list, but still a thoroughly enjoyable flick. I loved it.

"Bugsy" is one of those movies that gets better every time I see it. Beatty's masterpiece, though the rest of the cast, starting with Bening, is just as good. Production is superb. Yes, many inaccuracies but it's a damn good story.

love the scene when he goes to that house and wants to buy it when it isnt on sale :L

love the scene when he makes Dragna bark like a dog or squeal like a pig

^^^did that really happen or no?

I dont know if that really happend,no one can say for sure but all i know is that Siegel had some beef with Dragna over the national wire service.

taking the piss out of us toodoped? with the 'love the scene'

ehhh....what?!?!

Oh I thought you were copying me while being sarcastic haha. Mis understanding that's all

No problem

It was a pretty cool movie.

Too lovey dovey for my liking. The whole movie is pretty much based on his relationship with Virginia Hill.

yeah as far as accuracy goes it's a mess. But it's an entertaining movie.

right hes to love blind

Indeed. This was prolly one of the first movies about the mafia I remember seeing as a young kid. Either that or Mobsters.

Both are pretty inacurrate but overall entertaining.

Classic movie. I loved it. Warren did great playing bugsy.
