I have already seen too many mafia biographies, and the peak of the genre is Good Fellas. Nobody can outdone Good Fellas, not even Scorsese himself. Here we find the classical themes of a mafia biography spanning from 50s to 70s, the usual wonderful camera work, the maniacal reconstruction of that era. This is all a Scorsese obsession, like a kid that maniacally wants to go back to his childhood. The movie is very predictable, to the point that you can easily anticipate each scene. Last but least, casting De Niro as an irish is total crazy.
