Goodfellas (1990)

2012-04-23

Heavily-overrated with not a single performance worthy of high praise. Fairly-enjoyable, but my great lack of interest in the mafia doesn't help. It's not hard-hitting enough (think American Gangster, which itself however has the advantage of being younger), and the direction not satisfactory, which is very strange considering it's done by Martin Scorcese, the same guy who brought us both Taxi Driver and Raging Bull before.
