Goodfellas (DVD 1999)

Excellent action packed thriller. Just how a gangster film should be. A muct see for any fan of gangster films. 10/10

This film ranks with The Godfather as a Gangster Movie which will never date.

It is very realistic and while the violence is quite sickening it is a true
representation of the Times.

Ray Liotta and Joe Pesci deserved an Oscar for their performances. Another
triumph for Martin Scorcese

great film, bought for my partner, he watched it twice in two days. H e is not a Dvd lover so this film must be excellent. He seen it when it was first released and wanted it again, the seller was selling at a cheap price so had a bargain

This is a true classic gangster movie from the ultimate film maker, Martin Scorcese!!!

Every shot and every angel is thought out by everybody involved with this film and it makes it a true pleasure to watch!!!

De Niro is superb, Pesci amazing but Liotta steals the show...amazing cast, amazing true story and a fabulously produced movie!!!

This is an Excellent Dvd & the Ultimate Classic in Quality movies! It has a vast number of Top Quality Actors such as Robert De niro, Ray Liotta, Joe Pescy & many many more! and is a Great Movie which has a very varied genre to it with plenty of suspense, Comedy, Tragedy, Romance & Violence in it. It is a very Authentic Italian Mafia Gangster movie with great acting, a great storyline & provides an excellent insight into the way things worked in that era & these type of people led there lifes. Since Goodfellas has been made there has been sooo many Movies bought out that try & imitate it, but never succed in my opinion as Goodfellas is the Original & although it has got alot of Credit for being such a great Movie, i personally think it has never actually got enough as thesedays they give credit to so many films & compared to The Classic Films such as this, most of these New Movies are very Poor!

As you may know,the Film is a very Long 3 hour movie, but dont be put off as its such a great movie that you will certainly NOT get Bored watching and unlike Most Movies, you will want to watch it again & again. As believe me, it gets Better everytime & everytime you watch it. You see different things in it that you hadnt noticed before as it has so many quirky with many witty lines & humourous, funny, romantic & even funny violent moments in it, thats it bound to make you laugh & repeat its gangsta slang terms for months,Lol! ;Im going to get the Papers, get the Papers' Lol!

You will be Strapped to get a Film as good as this & with so many A List, Top Classic Actors in it, your going to find it hard to get any better than this. If you like Proper, authentic Gangster movies (& Not all these Lame Holywood Hood Bagers) then Trust me, you WILL Love this Film!

Well Worth a Watch & Even more to the Point, Definately worth a Buy as you can pick a Copy up on Ebay for £2-£3 & it'll be the Best £3 you've Spent in a long time, if not Ever!

A Top Class A Movie xXx

this is exactly what you would expect when ray leotta, rebert de-niro & joe peschi get togeather in a film, gripping action drama with a powerful story line. great film!

Great mobster movie from the point of view of a guy who grew up wishing he were a gangster. It differs from other movies of the same genre in that it glamorizes ganster life.

Did you see Godfather? Did you like it ?If yes you have to see GOODFELLAS !!!!
I think it is excellent movie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is a true to life film with no holds barred. and the charactors were played by excellent actors and actresses.the storyline was gripping and kept you glued to the screen.the background music was excellent. i decided to buy this film as i had not seen goodfellas for years.

Simply the best 'gangster' film of all time.
The best actor & director of there time have delivered a timeless masterpiece!

Superb product, new sealed and well packaged, a classic film in its own right. If you haven't seen this then this area of film making history has passed you by and you have seriously missed out on legendary acting.
I highly recommend anyone to see this for the pure quality of the late millenium film making talents that are few and far between nowadays.
Go on, do yourself a favour, rent it, buy it, whatever, but make sure that you make a date with it.
Best listened to in the quite and dark, if you are not of nervous disposition.

Go on, enjoy it, you know you want to, you know you have to!

My personal all time best gangster/mafia movie, each of the actors and actresses plays a perfect re-enactment of how it was like to be involved with the mafia. Joe Pesci plays undoubtedly one of the most feared men in mafia movie history, with his psychotic ways for such a small man, he is faultless. Ray Liotta's best movie role to date by far, and for De Niro, what can I say, you get what is expected, a exact characterization, its almost as if Pesci and De Niro were actually involved with the mafia at one time, what with the way they portray themselves on screen in this movie.
People usually choose the Godfather movie or movies as the best mafia flick, no chance in my eyes, Goodfellas is top notch.

Probably one of the best films of the 20th Century & as an insight into the workings of the Mafia it's right up there with Godfather I and II. Based on the story of ganster turned informer Henry Hill, Goodfellas is a gritty and witty film that highlights the glamourous side of organised crime as well as the negativities and the very real dangers involved.
Liotta, Pecsi, De Niro, Sorvino and Bracco all turn in excellent and very believable performances; Pesci in particular as the psychotic Tommy DeVito ("Funny how?").
The great soundtrack is also proimient and accurately follows the times from the 50's to the 80's. Is is particularly poignient in the aftermath of the Lufthansa heist. A film that is watchable again and again.

Seriously overrated, slow burner, plotless gangster film, not bad but lacks any real punch.

Sure their is violence, drugs and all that jazz, but isnt this customary in all ganagster films, in my opinion, i dont rate goodfellas as highly as it is regarded and i am quite fond of gangster films, i would say it is better than scarface but not as good as the departed

WITH JOE PESCI, RAY LIOTTA AND ROBERT DENIRO STARRING, TO NAME BUT A FEW, WHAT ELSE COULD YOU ASK FOR IN A GANGSTER FILM. WITH VIOLENCE, GUNS, BLOOD, ITALIAN MOBSTERS, AND GREAT ACTING/DIRECTING - THIS IS A RECIPE FOR A FANTASTIC FILM. HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND A MUST FOR YOUR DVD COLLECTION.,

Based on Nicholas Pileggi's book WISEGUY, Martin Scorsese’s GOODFELLAS is a wry, violent, and exhilarating film about the life of Henry Hill, an aspiring criminal who ends up in the FBI’s witness protection program after testifying against his former partners. As a poor Irish-Italian growing up in 1950s New York City, Hill (Ray Liotta) rises through the ranks of his Brooklyn neighborhood's organized crime branch, and with money from the mob he begins living the good life, complete with a beautiful bride, Karen (Lorraine Bracco), a fancy house, and the best seats at the most exclusive restaurants. A botched robbery lands Henry in prison for a brief period of time, and when he gets released, his reckless infidelities and drug abuse damage his association with his adopted family. Scorsese’s film is a visual and sonic onslaught, featuring a brilliant pop-music soundtrack and stunning camera work--including the infamous Steadicam one-take that introduces the audience to the Copacabana’s patrons. He uses the songs to infuse a breathtaking, invigorating rhythm into every scene. As the psychopathic Tommy DeVito, Joe Pesci delivers an unforgettable performance that is alarming in its cold-blooded callousness, helping to cement GOODFELLAS’ place as a classic portrait of life in the mob.

Martin Scorsese's 1990 masterpiece GoodFellas immortalises the hilarious, horrifying life of actual gangster Henry Hill (Ray Liotta), from his teen years on the streets of New York to his anonymous exile under the Witness Protection Program. The director's kinetic style is perfect for recounting Hill's ruthless rise to power in the 1950s as well as his drugged-out fall in the late 1970s; in fact, no one has ever rendered the mental dislocation of cocaine better than Scorsese. Scorsese uses period music perfectly, not just to summon a particular time but to set a precise mood. GoodFellas is at least as good as The Godfather without being in the least derivative of it. Joe Pesci's psycho improvisation of Mobster Tommy DeVito ignited Pesci as a star; Lorraine Bracco achieves a career-defining performance as the love of Hill's life; and every supporting role, from Paul Sorvino to Robert De Niro, is a miracle.

If you haven't seen it, see it today. If you have seen it, why not buy it?

There have been so many bad gangster films in the past ten years. Watch Goodfellas to remind yourself what a great one is. You know what to expect, but you get much more. The only bad thing about Goodfellas is it spawned so many pale imitations.

Maybe it's not as good as The Godfather, but then, what is?

... Funny? Funny how?

You got to like the fact that its based on a true story,and the banter is second to none. Robert de niro is a top actor in this type of movie.
