GANGSTER MOVIES

[blckout20]

From Pauley the Don to Tony Montana what is your favorite gangster movie. It's so hard to choose Scarface was the first gangster movie I saw so I want to say that but they are all so good. Except Godfather 3 that was not good at all.

[ScottyFlex]

Scarface, hands down the best gangster movie.

[WarriorLax22]

yeah, nothing better than guido movies.

[blckout20]

SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRiEnD!!!!!!! sorry had 2 do it

[smitt5168]

why du u hav that big gun?

i'm how u say, paranoyed.
-scareface


i luv that movie. it reminds me of christamas everyday. except the snow is drugs. santa is al pachino. and the oresents are dead people

[WarriorLax22]

yeah...i can see the corrolation:concerned

[WestSideLa X eR]

Road to Perdition, Gangs of New York....

jk


Def. scarface or any of the godfathers

[Dan]

i gotta say star wars... you know, those little evil jedi kinda form gangs.

[cuse10d]

I'm the only goodfellas vote??? that movie was amzing

[Beebe]

casino is also a good movie, but I have to go with Scareface as the best

[LatinBabe]

westside had it right, gangs of new york and road to perdition are GREAT gang movies!

[DuLAX]

I love A Bronx Tale-

[smitt5168]

west side story

[blckout20]

I forgot to add casino but i was too lazy to change the poll. Bronx Tale is such a good movie I can see that so many times and never get bored of it.

[TheKOB]

Westside story? Gangs of NY?

you gotta be kidding...

Why not just throw Goonies out there as well?

Seriously though, outside of the classics (most of which I haven't seen) I like Suicide Kings, Made, and Unusual Suspects (which is more about crime in general as opposed to organized crime).

[WarriorLax22]

everyone DOES know that gangs of new york were about irish gangs as opposed to the mafia, right?

[TheKOB]

Also, as an Irishman, I am ashamed to have that fo-musical related to such a proud people...

[DuLAX]

blckout- I agree, I can watch A Bronx Tale over and over and not get tired of it...Great movie

[Hutch]

Knockaround guys.

[Snake~eyes]

Goodfellas and a Bronx Tale are great movies

[blckout20]

Knockaround Guys was real good, wouldn't consider it my favorite though. I'm Irish too and Gangs of New York was crap you can barely consider it a gangster movie. But o well if u liked it that's good for you.

To all you other Irish laxers out there St. Patricks Day is coming....O YEA!!!!!!

[powellman21]

speakin of irish what about "boondock saints". sweet movie. yall should really rent it some time worth seein. it s about two irish brothers that try to kill all the bad mafia people because they get like some supernatural thing from god. its crazy the fight seens are sweet.

[powellman21]

i voted for scarface of course, but the godfather series was the only series i know of that got better as they went on like 2 was better than 1 and so on. i suprised that only a few voted for the other godfathers.

[powellman21]

oops make that none that voted for 2 and 3.

[LatinBabe]

I really have to say, Italian Job. wouldnt they be considered a "gang"?

No.

[LatinBabe]

well its a group of "thugs" working together to steal stuff...doesnt that fit the definition of a gang?

[ScottyFlex]

I can't believe Carlitos Way hasn't been mentioned yet. That was another great gangster movie. And no, I don't think the Italian Job counts...

[LatinBabe]

its the no killing thing right? its a gang..thus they should be listed..may not fit the TYPE of gangs yall want (the killing kind)...but they are still a gang!

[ScottyFlex]

You could also consider any group of people a 'gang', but there is a big difference between 'gang' and 'gangster'. And yes, gangsters kill people, its part of the job.

[LatinBabe]

well, there is also the bad guy and his posse who try to kill...is he a gangster? and if so, it is a gang movie!

[ScottyFlex]

Your completely right, then I guess Street Fighter would count too.

[Snake~eyes]

Nah, its not a ganster movie. For it to be a ganster movie they have to be like a mob, funnel illegal money and do crap like that. Think sterotypical! :)

[LatinBabe]

but they set-up heists, crack safes, funnel stolen gold, weild non-streetlegal minis, and they have that yugoslavian guy who kinda weirds you out. not to mention cracks the traffic light codes

[ScottyFlex]

Then I guess Bad Santa would count, they crack safes and steal stuff too!

[LatinBabe]

ok ok ok...i give up. :off

lets try to keep it on topic now.

[powellman21]

yeah then alice in wonderland counts to because the mad hater was on drugs and the rabbit porbably stole the watch. i like those hardcore gangsta disney's.

[LatinBabe]

:off

please get back on topic and stop bashing me plz

AWSOME ****IN FILM! Oh my god, just, damn, that movie is friggen AMAZING.
Go buy it, NOW!
Seriously.
I always quote that bartender when I run into someone I don't like...
"Why don't you make like a tree... AND GET THE **** OUT! ****! ***!"
Tehehehe... oh and FYI to those who haven't seen, the bartender has terrets sydrom.

[livin4lax09]

an old gangster movie...the sting...it's not as much a gangster movie as it is a...umm...trickery movie. I highly recommend it.

[blckout20]

I just thought of Boondock Saints and when I came back I was glad some one mentioned it. It is probably in my top 3 movies of all time and I own it so I'm surprised I didn't think of it. Im absolutely in love with that movie, there coming out with the sequal All Saints Day.

As for Italian Job, definately not a gangster movie. Why? All I hafta say is markie mark and seth green come on now. That is more of a heist movie neway, a hiest movie and gangster movie are not the same.
