Brilliant Acting And An Inspired Script,

Rating: 9/10 (3 April 2013)

Goodfellas is a fantastic movie with a great story line and a truly inspired cast,Joe Pesci performance is fantastic and he completely deserved the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.There was really only two problems I had with the movie,I didn't like how they put Robert De Niro's name before Ray Liotta's in the credits and even on the posters he is in front,this is making you think that James Conway is the main character,but thats not true,Henry Hill is,and although I obviously prefer Robert De Niro to Ray Liotta,he is the main character,and no one will know that going into the movie.I also don't like how they changed the narration to Lorraine Bracco's character,because Henry Hill is narrating,and it doesn't make any sense to change to another character,Forrest Gump doesn't go from Tom Hanks narrating,and suddenly jump to Robin Wright.
Going through the life of Henry Hill (Ray Liotta) who narrates his life,starting as a young man wanting to be part of the mafia,to being part of it and quickly regretting it.
