I liked both Carlito's Way AND Donnie Brasco

glen...

Carlito's way is an excellent movie too. Isn't True Romance the movie with Christian slater and about a million big hollywood stars?

What's a SNAG?

[Edit]

Yep True Romance does have a million hollywood stars. Look at this rap sheet:

Starring:
Christian Slater
Patricia Arquette
Dennis Hopper
Val Kilmer
Gary Oldman
Brad Pitt
Christopher Walken
Michael Rapaport
Bronson Pinchot
Chris Penn
Samuel L. Jackson
James Gandolfini
Tom Sizemore
Kevin Corrigan
Paul Ben-Victor
Victor Argo
Saul Rubinek


Also, I second the vote for Donnie Brosco, that movie was awesome. Fuhgetaboutit

 

[SackOfAllTrades]

True Romance was cool, Balki from Perfect Strangers was in it.

A Better Tommorrow 1 and 2 are awesome. Classic Chow Yun Fat and classic John Woo.

 

[TripleJ]

You don't know what a SNAG is?

SENSITIVE NEW AGE GUY

Yeah, them dudes from the 80's. Pretended that they were in touch with womens feelings, knew when they should overstep the line. But in the end, they wanted what every other guy wanted; pussy!

Trivia question: who did Val Kilmer play?

True Romance has my favorite movie scene ever. When Dennis Hopper realizes that he is going to die anyway and proceeds to tell the Sicilians that they are part eggplant to get killed quickly.

Classic!

Come on. Elvis

I am agreeing with &quot;Things to do in Denver when your dead&quot;
Great movie, only mentioned once, so apparently not well known. So, it fits.

Also, a movie that hasn't been listed and is a very good movie from Sergio Leone.
&quot;Once Upon a Time in America&quot;
Super movie.

 

[dukdukgoos]

Some other good ones that come to mind:

Sonatine (Yakuza beach party!)
The Cotton Club (sort of a jazz musician/tap dancer/gangster movie)
Mean Streets (one of Scorsese's earliest)

How about bullet in the head and the god of gamblers series (not really mob movies but close IMO)

 

[SammyBoy]

Like Old Black and White Mob movies?

try THE ROARING TWENTIES (1939)

its got James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, all the ill big names

 

[gnoymyguy]

<< How about bullet in the head and the god of gamblers series (not really mob movies but close IMO) >>



Bullet in the Head definitely no mob movie, but can be categorised as one of the greatest foreign films ever IMO.

Hard Boiled anyone? Could be a mob movie with so much focus on gangsters.

 

[damocles]

Bugsy Mallone: a startling potrayal of a viscious Mob leader. Starring Scott Baio

LA Confidential: Great Movie

 

[BruinEd03]

The Untouchables =)

This is one large a$$ off the scale vote for RESIVOIR DOGS!


Why cant we pick our own names?
Cause then I got 13 guys who dont give a fvck bout eachother all wanting to be Mr. Black.
So why do I gotta be Mr. Pink?
Cause your a fa**ot, allright!

 

[b0mbrman]

I actually liked Donnie Brasco but not too many other people did.

 

[helloedchen]

u never seen mob movies until you see the Young &amp; Dangerous series...

 

[kbm5]

Nobody's mentioned Bonnie and Clyde, yet. Faye Dunaway was quite a hottie in her day.

 

[happykitten]

Wow, thanks for all the suggestions. I have some serious mob movie catching-up to do. Keep 'em coming...
