Okay this film pretty much MADE Martin Scorsese.It is the True story of a gangster named Henry Hill.The movie starts out in the fifties and works it's way up to the early nineties.In between is a whole lotta stealing,drugs,and killing...or "whacks".Everyone(especially Ray Liotta) did an excellent performance in this movie.I'm a huge De Niro fan and this has to be his second best film (behind Taxi Driver).Joe Pesci plays very ill tempered Tommy DeVito.His famous "How am I funny" speech is awesome.Other than that I Hate pesci's character.He is an asshole throughout the whole movie.He treats everyone like dirt(or puts them in it) so when he was shot I for one applauded.Liotta,De Niro,and Pesci are these three friends who are gangsters.They start making money from drugs and that's where it goes down hill (and Bats).By the end of the movie Henry is a cocaine addict and De Niro is killing everyone....he even tries to kill Henry.So Henry rats on Jimmy (De Niro) and Boss Pauly (Paul Sorvino) and lives out the rest of his life in witness protection.
Overall,This film is astounding.Definitely worth a 10 outta 10.A must see especially if you like gangster films.
