how awesome? Goodfellas awesome? or is it overhyped a little?

check the list, the Departed is there, and it says it will come out in October. That list is usually accurate, but I wouldn't be surprised if it comes out in November.
The movies that have been coming out lately suck. I can't wait for a decent film that's worth the ticket price.
The Departed > Goodfellas.
That is awesome. Thanks for the info. I'll send you a PM if I hear anything else about the release date.
seriously?
The fact that I still haven't found time to see it is literally making me crazy.
Seriously dude. It was off the charts. For me, it was Goodfella's meets Pulp Fiction.
We are probably going to see it on Monday.
Most people have said it's not as good as Goodfellas, but hopefully I'm like you and think it's better. I haven't seen a good movie in a while.
Goodfellows = Great Movie
Pulp Fiction = Not so great.
Similarly to Joe, I have to wait until the DVD comes out (or my kids grow up).
hmmm I think most people disagree with you on that
So it's Goodfellas good, but is it Scarface good?
"You wanna with me? Okay. You wanna play rough? Okay. Say o to my little friend!"
that line is the !
Don't get high on your own supply.
Went to movies with my son last night, and he wanted to go see Employee of the Month instead.
It was funny, but not on this movies level by a wide margin.
Will see it this week though.
The Departed was great. Just saw it last night,will proabably see it again.
what?? naaah! you mean to tell me women don't respond to lines like "This is paradise, I'm tellin' ya. This town like a great big pussy just waiting to get ed.", or "Look at that: a junkie... I got a junkie for a wife... Her womb is so polluted... I can't even have a ing little baby with her!"
either way, I know plenty of women that like Scarface. I mean come on, with lines like "say o to my little friend" and " Caspar Gomez! And the in' Diaz brothers! 'em all! I bury those roaches!". How can you not love that movie!
I think I'd like Scarface a lot more if it weren't so damned overrated.
By the time I finally saw it, I was expecting some sort of religious experience, but didn't get it. Just got a typical over-the-top De Palma film and a performance from Al Pacino so heavy handed it's almost comical.
Exactly. I watched it for the first time a few years back, but it wasn't all that great. It was just good.
Scarface is the but the younger generation doesn't always see it for the classic it is.
Saw it last night. I'll give it 5 out of 5
I'm still thinking about this movie, but again, I'm a film guy. I'm gonna go out tonight with some other friends and family to watch it again. I really love it that much.
I can tell you right now, Leonardo Dicaprio will probably get nominated for Best Actor, and he should. I'll be rooting for that. His best work to date.
Matt Damon and Jack played great roles as well.
Watching this film, it had Oscar written all over it.
I can see the nominations.
Best Actors or Supporting Actors:
Jack Nicholson (he's usually nominated)
Leonardo Dicaprio (awesome work, really),
Matt Damon
Best Screenplay (Adapted)
Best Film
Best Director (I'm hoping, finally this is Marty's year).
When the movie opened up, it had a "Goodfellas" feel, with a trucking shot going into a bar, playing the Rolling Stones.
I was pumped at that point, but then also the film went with a Pulp Fiction kinda storytelling that was very entertaining, I really don't want to give anything away, but it is nerve racking and I'm usually great at predicting what's gonna happen in a film, but this film had me guessing and wondering alot about what the was gonna happen.
The laughs are there, Mark Wahlberg was great, Alec Balwin was funny, Martin Sheen was good, and there is the blood and violence that you could expect from a Scorsese picture.
Looking forward to owning that DVD.
Go see it.

I watched a 8:10 showing last night at the Silverado.
Fantastic ending.
Marky Mark stole the scenes he was in. DiCap in probably his best acting performance to date.
The beginning kind of puzzled me because of the accents, I couldn't understand some things here and there but it got better.
That psychiatrist is hot.
Mark Wahlberg was awesome. His character was so hostile. He kept me laughing.
Too many good quotes in this movie.
So yeah... great movie.
Great film. DiCaprio has truely blossomed into one of the top actors going right now. Scorsese really gets the best out of him (Gangs of New York, Aviator, and now The Departed are all great performances).
Three thumbs up! (or two if you don't live near a nuclear power plant)
I give it tree tumbs up ova here...
It's a great in' movie,
All due respect.
This Scorsese fella, he's a made guy, ya undastand?
Great earner, if u axe me.
Don't wit him or you'll be swimmin' wit the fishes.
Capice!?
The Departed
