What a masterpiece of a film.

Rating: 10/10 (22 June 2008)

I first watched GoodFellas about 2 years ago and the moment I saw the murder of Billy Batts within the opening couple of minutes I knew I was in for a treat. Robert De Niro plays Jimmy "The Gent" Conway brilliantly. Joe Pesci also superbly plays the ruthless Tommy DeVito. In my opinion I think it is Martin Scorsese's best film. Im a big fan of Scorsese's choice of music to put in GoodFellas as I am a big fan of Eric Clapton, Cream & The Rolling Stones. Since I watched GoodFellas I have gone on to buy other Scorsese films such as Raging Bull, Casino, Taxi Driver & Gangs Of New York, But still without a doubt I think GoodFellas is better than all of those.
