one of the finest examples of American cinema

Rating: 10/10 (30 May 2003)

Without a doubt, Goodfellas is Martin Scorsese's chef d'oeuvre. This adaptation of Pileggi's book is a masterpiece of cinematography. Rather than have you read through a superlative-packed review, I urge you to just watch it if you haven't already. And look out for the special edition DVD that I hope Warner will release promptly. 10/10
