Well I'll probably get flamed for this, since this is the Godfather Board. But I'd vote for Casino. And the reason is because it's based on fact about the Mobs business in Vegas, and how they basically came to screw it up.

I've always enjoyed Mob movies more if they are based on fact, or close to it.

I'd vote for Goodfellas I love that movie. I dont know why I like it that much. Maybe its the music or the great acting.


Leonard: I dont know. See, I have this condition.
Teddy: Well, I hope its not as serious as his, 'cos this guy's dead.

Once Upon A time In America because it is filled with Vintage footage of New York in the early 1920's, and is a true to fact tale about Prohibition, and a classic story about why "Good girls like Bad Guys".

Betrayal, Depression, Prohibition, Death, Murder, Youth, Sorrow, Romance, DeNiro, what more could you want!???

Godfather 2 gets my vote.

What is Boss of Bosses? I've never heard of that movie.

The reason I picked Godfather 2 is because it has my 2 favorite actors (DeNiro and Pacino).

You said it, Don Palentino!

I would vote for The Godfather and Goodfellas. I have watched both those movies a million times! Thet are a good contrast, with different styles. However they both have fantastic actors, scripts and direction.
