The first line in the film is spoken by Henry.
He says “What the F*** is that”
A few minutes later he says “As far back…………”

Travolta one is the worst thing I’ve ever seen. All the source material and they produced that crap. Soundtrack by Pitbull

I love the way all three of them know exactly what the noise is but still look puzzled... "we got a flat or something?"
My favourite film by a million miles. A master piece in my opinion. Especially the steady-cam bits like the introduction of the crew.

I've said to @Marty Moose about this before.
The Godfather parts 1 & 2 are better cinema.
Goodfellas is a better film.
OOOSH YEAH

The Godfather is the better crafted experience. It's flawless.
Goodfellas is the better watching experience. You can turn it on midway through and watch till the end.
OOOSH YEAH

Aye they’re both great like. Not sure I’m bothered about picking a winner but I feel like if goodfellas was half way through on tv I’d likely put it on and watch but godfather not so. Id Probably say that’s down to the fact there are various unmissable acting performances and scenes in goodfellas. Pesci for instance is a lunatic. There’s also the complete change in the film where Hill gets into drugs. The soundtrack is great as well. I really like godfather but goodfellas has much more to it.The Godfather is the better crafted experience. It's flawless.

Of course it does. You probably just haven’t seen them yet.

I thought he was class, brave of Scorsese to give him the lead but Liotta was great.

Never watched that one. It looked shite on the trailer
Superb. And the one where Henry and Karen go into the back of the restaurant, through the kitchen to their table in one take. Masterpiece.

If you like the mob genre it’s in the conversation, absolutely. If you don’t you’re on the wrong thread I’d suggest.Conversation for a separate thread, so many its hard to say. Not goodfellas though

Where he’s an absolute halfwit he is correct to some degree as there simply isn’t a greatest ever film
