What do you think is the best mafia/gangster movie?

Sorry, I forgot Scarface.
If you think Scarface is post it.

My top 10:
1. The Godfather 1
2. GoodFellas
3. The Godfather 2
4. A Bronx Tale
5. Casino
6. Scarface
7. The Godfather 3
8. Bonanno: A Godfather's Story
9. Once Upon A Time In America
10. Hoodlum

My favorite is Scarface, but I think Goodfellas or GF I is the best.

I don't think of the Godfather as a gangster movie, so I vote for Goodfellas.

my favourite is Godfather Part 1. Closely followed by Scarface and Goodfellas. Whats great about Goodfellas and Scarface is the one-liners , But the Godfather has a better story line.

Donnie Brasco is my favourite, closely followed by Bronx Tale and Carlito's Way.

I agree with Freddie C, I don't really class godfather as a Gangster movie - it's in a class of it's own.

Godfather 1. No question about it.

I think that Goodfellas depicts the Mafia better, but The Godfather and The Godfather Part II are better films.

"Miller's Crossing" and "Road To Perdition" deserve mention.

"Hoodlum", except for Tim Roth's performance, was terrible IMO

I picked The Godfather followed closly behind Once Upon A Time in America.

My brother and I were watching Once Upon A Time in America, and as the credits rolled he starts yelling "WTF did I just watch!? That didn't make sense!"

The Godfather. I thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed Once Upon a Time in America, which would have to tie with GFII as my next favorite, followed by Goodfellas.

So far, i am the only one who chose Casino. It was the first "mob" movie i ever saw, and it contains my two greatest fasinations, gambling, and organized crime. Also topping my list are Goodfellas, GF I and II, A Bronx Tale, and not mentioned: 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?
