Guest Anubis Puppet Report post Posted June 24, 2002 In the same vein as the Kubrick thread. If I missed one you really love, I sincerely apologize. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dreamer420 Report post Posted June 24, 2002 goodfellas is an easy pick in this catagory, and I would like casino as a distant second. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Report post Posted June 24, 2002 Taxi Driver easily. Some of his films I like, and some I don't at all, but Taxi Driver is a step above. One of the best movies ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anorak Report post Posted June 24, 2002 Taxi Driver gets my vote. I hate the drivel that some critics write about the film being dangerously right wing or rascist, they actually miss the the main point it makes of there being an ambiguous line between being hailed as a hero or condemned as evil in modern society. The film has no dubious agenda itself. 1. Taxi Driver 2. Mean Streets 3. After Hours 4. Raging Bull 5. King Of Comedy I could honestly leave the rest, Casino is just a rehash of Goodfellas with little of the same inspiration or verve and his period efforts are a bore.

Guest J*ingus Report post Posted June 25, 2002 I seem alone in this, but I never thought Goodfellas was all that great. Joe Pesci was awesome, but the rest of the cast wasn't up to their usual standards in my opinion. Does anyone here even remember what DeNiro's character's name was in that film? My vote easily goes to Taxi Driver, truly one of the great American movies. Raging Bull and Mean Streets would be my choices for second and third, and may I suggest After Hours for an honorable mention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest endgame722 Report post Posted June 25, 2002 Taxi driver just ahead of Raging Bull with Goodfellas a distant third. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Incandenza Report post Posted June 25, 2002 GoodFellas gets my vote. Might I add that I HATE Cape Fear? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest pochorenella Report post Posted June 25, 2002 Goodfellas, hands down. Sorry, never seen Mean Streets or Kundun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest godthedog Report post Posted June 25, 2002 raging bull, easy. more emotion, character complexity, & repeat value than any of his other movies. i always thought taxi driver was kind of overrated, i felt like travis bickle was a great character trapped in a movie that didn't use him quite correctly. his most underrated is probably after hours.
