"As far back as I can remember I always wanted to be a gangster."
Since the 27th anniversary was earlier this week and the recent passing of Frank Vincent I wanted to revisit this masterpiece. What a brilliant film. Everything is excellent, from the acting to the camera work to the soundtrack, this is one of the very best movies of all times. Martin Scorsese is at the top of his game. This is the definitive gangster movie and in my mind it will never be passed.

An endlessly rewatchable movie where artistry and entertainment perfectly collide
Films like this are the reason why I love cinema so much.
One of my favorite movies of all time.The best mob movie of all time. Everything about it is almost perfect. The acting is fantastic story is amazing. It’s a movie any fan of movies should watch. Overall it’s one of my favorite movies of all time.
(10 out of 10)
First time finally watching it and man I am am so happy and sad. Happy because it's another 10/10 movie that I can add to my list. Sad because I'm realizing all the good movies that are made today aren't as impactful as as used to be. This movie is a must watch if you're a big fan of The Sopranos! Mafia type movies and shows have really become my all time favorites.
Martin Scorsese's masterclass in modern cinema is still as fresh as the day it was released. Engaging storyline, crackling dialogue, beautiful cinematography and expertly directed.
You've watched it many times before...watch it again.
This is a deeply interesting movie of friendship and betrayal.
Love every minute of this film.
Masterpiece.
