One of the best crime dramas ever

Rating: Null/10 (8 May 1999)

GoodFellas shows us the side of the New York Italian mafia that The Godfather never allowed us to see. In GoodFellas, we see the small-time hoods, the killings, the smaller mob crews; the brutal underbelly of the mob. In The Godfather, we see the romantic and luxurious side of the mob. This movie is great, also, because it is a true story, based on real life events as told by the man played by the character Henry Hill (Ray Liotta). Fantastic direction, plot, characters, drama, and action. This movie is a definite 10.
