Eastern Promises all the way. The Red Mafiya are some seriously badass mofos. But since its not on the list, I'll go with Goodfellas.

I haven't seen all of them up there.
I picked Godfather 1 just cause it's always been a favorite.
I love Goodfellas and Casino also.
Even went as far as to read the books.

MILLERS CROSSING. That movie is pure gold.

Officially the hardest poll yet. I picked Goodfella's, but Godfather 1, and Once Upon A Time in America are close.

i watched American Gangester today for the first time.
Whilke I thought it was good, it surely didn't live up to how great I had heard it was.
I dunno I've seen plenty of heroin = money films.
Carlito's Way...anyone dig that one?
I liked bothe the original and the prequel.

The Godfather SAGA as played on Bravo is the best movie EVER. Goodfellas is #2. If you've never seen the Godfather Saga they take the first 2 movies an cut them up an put them in chronological(sp?) order...

IF he's hiding hes not hiding very well! He's a regular guest/caller on Howard Stern. Most of the time when hes on he is totally shitfaced! He always advertises his paintings which he sells though an eBay store. He's also suposed to have his own spaghetti sauce called "Henry Hills Sunday Gravy" coming out at somepoint.

Heres the link to his ebay store:

i voted Goodfellas.
The book the film is based on is amazing as well, if you haven't read it I can't recommend it enough.

I wanna nominate City Of God, Hard Boiled, The Long Good Friday and Get Carter.
