Goodfellas (1990)

[Movie 232 / Day 245]


Based on the story of Henry Hill, the plot revolving around Henry's gradual climb up through the hierarchy of the Mafia; starting out with running messages and culminating in drug dealing and murder. Nothing lasts for ever though and eventually it becomes apparent that Henry's days are numbered.

The greatest gangster movie ever? Possibly. Certainly in the top three. Ray Liotta and Joe Pesci have never been better.

My rating: 8.6 / 10
IMDB rating: 8.8 / 10
Running time: 146 mins
