Goodfellas nah...GreatFellas

Rating: Null/10 (3 October 1999)

Goodfellas is one of the best movies of the decade. Scorcese and De Niro are the greatest director/actor combo since Ford and Wayne. De Niro is dynamic. Pesci is perfect. And Scorsese is a scorcher. The trio are the heart of this motion picture. Liotta is just a loose artery. Pesci could wack Kicking Bird any day and that's why he won the best supporting actor oscar, hands down. The soundtrack is one of the best ever made, it should be sung in Church. Scorsese is one of those directors that doesn't get any recognition from the Academy Awards (he should have won best director for Raging Bull). Ray Liotta is average at best (he made a more appealing Shoeless Joe in "Field of Dreams"). Lorraine Bracco is stunning, her acting has always been solid. That is why she is receiving rave reviews for The Soprano's. If you want a great movie rent something else, but if you want a high-octane action packed mesmerizing masterpiece you might want to pick up Goodfellas. P.S. write me if agree, write to the person who reviewed the movie right above me is you disagree. email me for any movie suggestions, they don't call me the "tree of knowledge" for nothing.
