Such a great film from start to finish, though it might feel a bit long towards the end as things start to unravel.

 

It's got Joe Pesci asking if you think he's a funny man. Watch it for that scene alone @GazzaGarratt

Yes! I shall watch this tomorrow. One of my favourite films

So I managed to watch this a little later than the FG Film week it was for but I'm really glad i stuck to finding time to watch it.

 

Now I don't like gangster films, just not very exciting for me, not sure what it is. However, I'd go on to say that this one did keep my interest as I think the way it was made with Ray Liotta explaining what was going on really helped and i'm pretty sure this is one of the 'softer' gangster films out there - you know, when you say you like Whisky and the only one you drink is Southern Comfort. Anyway, you guys can confirm if my comments are true.

 

@phil bottle, yes Joe Pesci's funny man scene was awesome. He was more mental than I realised in this! The set up for the final scenes and his review of 'that day' was well made. Opened my eyes to how it really was back in the day.

 

7.5/10 - solid and fun watch, albeit a little long.

I'd recommend you try Casino for your next gangster film, if it wasn't such a long film too, you find out what Joe uses a pen for, and it's not writing [emoji16]
