The Best Film I have ever Seen (mild spoilers)

Rating: 10/10 (2 November 2014)

Goodfellas is the best film I have ever seen. This is what I thought as soon as I watched it. You will laugh, and be silent. You will lose your breath and be sucked into this world.
Goodfellas is one of those films that's so masterfully made, that you want more, you want to see these characters scheme for hours, you want to listen to voiceovers about the gangster life forever. From the very first moments, you know the film will be brutal, yet relentlessly entertaining.
The story revolves around Henry Hill, a real life gangster, whose rise and fall is told in excellent Scorsese fashion. With voice-over, freeze frame, tracking shots and Robert DeNiro all making an appearance. But with expert direction and great acting all round, who is the star of this film but Joe Pesci, whose psychotic endeavours always make me laugh at killing. Because of the way it's executed. Other highlights include the April 27th 1980 scene which is the best montage of events I've seen in film.
Overall, I will say watch Goodfellas now, because when it's over, you will miss it...
