            Godfather part 1 and 2.

            Casino? Goodfellas? Not even close.

              between Heat and Departed I'd say for #5. Usual suspects, casino, training day all close.

                      Sarcasm is hard to detect for some I guess...

                        FYI for those who don't know this thread is almost 3 years old and spot #5 was voted on by the posters...Casino didn't make the cut

                        Can't believe I am still explaining this almost 3 years later

I have compiled a comprehensive list of the greatest mob/crime movies ever made. I narrowed it down to 30. From this list I will pick 5 movies to be in the final poll. I can't currently see any way that Scarface, Goodfellas, Godfather 1, and Godfather 2 don't make the list. If you disagree, please say so. Otherwise, please help me pick the final film to make the top 5 for the poll.

                            Here are the other 26 movies to chose from. Please pick one final movie to round out the top 5. Voting for #5 selection ends New Year's Eve night.

                              I liked Menace 2 Society, kind of a disturbing movie but shows how messed up the inner city black culture is and how hard it is to get out of it and better yourself even if you want to try, like the main character does in the movie

                                  I've re-watched A Bronx Tale last night and feel it's a reasonably well done film, and deserving of around the spot it got in the poll. I also think the young kid (Little C) did really well and the middle aged kid (C) was a fukkin horrible actor - otherwise this one would have been higher for me.

                                  Gangster flicks since 2012 - anything making this list?

                                  You could make a case for a few Tarantino movies probably although his new ones aren't exactly typical gangster movies, more period pieces where his imagination runs wild.

                                  Eastern Promises is good, as is The French Connection. Mean Streets is ok. Untouchables is way overrated IMO. I missed a couple but the TOP 5 is still solid.

                                          The Pope of Greenwich Village - not really a typical gangster movie, probably belongs on here.

                                          This is another movie that holds up over time - you can watch it once a year it's still good. Some of the other ones, you watch once and it's alright but this one is a classic.

                                              Made is a good one, definitely not conventional either. Wouldn't make the top 5 but great flick

                                                      It's gotta be the Departed. Everyone was throwing 100 or knocking down threes from the logo in every scene

                                                        Departed is on there, good one, didn't quite crack the Top 10, but probably should have.

                                                        Diggity - this thing has tom Hardy and Gandolfini and I've never seen it...

                                                        Wow I know what I am doing later, looks legit
