Review of GoodFellas (1990) by Danny O — 13 Jan 2015
Goodfellas manages to be wildly entertaining as well as an extremely good movie. The characters are very memorable, and the acting is terrific. Loots is very convincing in the lead, and Pesci was a great screen presence as the loose cannon of the bunch.
The directing by Scorsese is great, and the writing is very good. The movie has some very entertaining and memorable scenes, and a nice flow. It doesn't feel too long, because there is plenty going on.
It also has dramatic moments that really work, making for not only a fun movie, but a well structured crime drama as well. This is a perfect gangster movie combining an interesting story with great characters.
Goodfellas gets 5/5 stars (A+).
