10 Mafia Movies Everyone Should See

[ZJ]

Okay, so I've recently gotten into a mafia movie kick. I've seen some classics like Goodfellas, but I'm still hungry for more. So my question to you guys is this:

What are the 10 best (in your opinion) mafia/mob/gangster movies of all-time? List them.

Fuck I was expecting your opinions

Love that one.
The Godfather.
Scarface.

Never seen them but heard great things.

Why mob movies in particular, ZJ? If it's not too much to inquire.

skimmed the thread, noticed everyone already mentioned most of the good ones.
The Departed is worth checking out if you haven't seen it. it's not really a 'mafia' movie per say, but it's about the irish mob and shit and it's fucking sweet.

You couldn't even list one film?

I really didn't like Goodfellas. I found it dull and uninspiring, a straight telling of a tedious tale with no unique insight or perspective. It wasn't even stylish or "cool".

[Scarface]

Goodfellas
Casino
Scarface
A Bronx Tale
The Godfather
Carlito's Way

Only six, but still, great mafia movies nonetheless.

Also, I've never seen the second or third Godfather movies, but I hear they are also very enjoyable.

A bronx tale. Haven't seen it mentioned yet, should be at or near the top of this list.

And Bugsy. That movie was pretty fucking sad.

The Godfather (1+2), Casino, Goodfellas, Scarface, White Heat, Donnie Brasco, The Untouchables, The Seven-Ups, and A Touch Of Evil. You must watch these movies!

I was asking for other people's suggestions on what to watch, Homesar. I did mention Goodfellas in the OP, though.

[Shade]

The Godfather
Hoodlum

Those are the only two I've seen that I've watched multiple times.

I'm too lazy to name 10 but Casino is definitely one of them.

[Cool-Points]

scarface and pulp fiction
