Screenplay: Paul Attanasio based on the book Donnie Brasco: My Undercover Life in the Mafia by Joseph Pistone with Richard Woodley Al Pacino in a Mafia movie feels as natural as peanut butter with jelly.
I had persuaded my father to buy movies that have overtaken his once boylike mind and darkened it with Mafia stuff.
There are essentially two kinds of Mafia movies: those that romanticize the life and those that depict it with gut-wrenching clarity.

The Russian mafia bit and the endi ng were lame and overblown, but the movie was better than I thought it would be!

The movie received a fair rating, but the evening was highlighted by good pizza and a monster game of Mafia, led by Jack Marston and John Kline.

Harold Ramis directs like he has seen all the other mafia movies, and he must have as there a bit of everything that worked for the other movies but not this one.
This movie was produced by Francis Ford Coppola in his salad days: makes you wonder what kind of filmmaker he might have been if he hadn't got hold of that mafia book.
I was looking for the movie with business theme, so obviously those certain movies like “The Godfather” which appears to be about the mafia but in many ways is actually about business.

Dude "Goodfellas" is a movie about The Mafia, which means that in the real world I don't have to pay my dues to the reigning powers that be.
I was his first and favorite grandchild, and loved to watch movies and television shows about the Mafia.
