The career of a minor mafioso.

It's got a handful of iconic scenes that are at least worth seeing it once for. But for the most part, it's boring. When we first started our Top 250 project, I almost decided not to do it because it would mean having to watch Goodfellas again. Well, Goodfellas and Scarface. I just don't get why anyone would want to watch it a second time. Okay, I guess that's not true; I can appreciate it... but the 15th best movie ever? The IMDb voters are all insane.
