Goodfellas, Raging Bull, or Casino?

Goodfellas.

"I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you?"

Best Pesci scene in any movie.

Goodfellas IMO, but Raging Bull is close.

I voted Goodfellas, but I like the first half of Casino just a little bit more.

Goodfellas. I find the best scene were he explains all the people : Jimmy two times, etcetera etcetera. And after the robbery they meet in the cafe. That dumbass buys a new car and coat for his wife and jewelery while agreed to stay low.

Goodfellas

I have been told, by people that know these things, that Raging Bull is the best movie ever made. I watched it a few years ago and thought is was pretty boring.

Casino is good but just seems like another telling of Goodfellas, just set in Vegas.

My thought exactly

 

[poofyhairguy]

Goodfellas is classic. For many of those actors the best movie they were in.

 

[zinfamous]

Raging Bull, and it isn't close. But that isn't fair, really.

Then obviously Goodfellas and Casino.

Raging Bull is the best movie out of the three.

Maybe not the most entertaining out of the three, but the best.

Godfather Part 2 - nothing is more hardcore than ordering the execution of your own brother.

Nor was it directed by Scorsese nor did it star Joe Pesci to the best of my knowledge.

I liked casino cuz it had more Pesci rants and they were better.

People think its the most original since it was first.
I think it sucks since it was first. The acting is often hammy, the pace is slow considering theres supposed to be a huge real life story behind it.

Casino is 3 hours but moves very fast because a lot of shit happens.

Goodfellas. It's good at the douchey cinema thing, but still accessible to anyone that wants to see a good movie.

Raging Bull is awesome, but in the film student sort of way. It defined a genre like Citizen Kane or Gone With the Wind did before it.

I really loved Casino, but it seemed like a solid "let's get the band back together" thing. It still worked, but it wasn't anything new.

The Jr Film Critic in me wants to rate them:

1. Raging Bull
2. Goodfellas
3. Casino

But if I had to watch all three I would queue them up:

1. Goodfellas
2. Casino
3. Raging Bull

That's also my order for viewings of each movie. I guess that says something about how we can consider a film great, but not so entertaining.
