Bronx Tale/Godfather/Good Fellas

Well let me start off by saying that Good Fellas was definetley my favorite becasue of all the action that took place. The Bronx Tale had a very good story line, but not enought action. i did not like the Godfather because the story was very hard to follow.

The Bronx Tale and Good Fellas are similar in many ways. The Godfather is not similar like these two movies are. In both movies, the parents tell their child not to be involved with mobs. In The Godfather, the whole family is invovled in the mob. Only in Goodfellas is their drug business because in The Godfather, the Don refuses to go into the Drug business/trade. Both Goodfellas and A Bronx Tale take place in the 60's while the Godfather takes place in the 40's. Joe Pesci is both in a Bronx Tale and in Goodfellas, having two completely different roles. DeNiro also acts in Bronx Tale and Goodfellas.

In both Bronx Tale and the Godfather, there are ethnic/racial groups. Goodfellas is a true story and incorporates different races. The Godfather was a decent film but a Bronx Tale and Goodfellas were absolutely amazing, following a very good story line. Recommend all films.

*I think we should get into the war genre next like Saving Private Ryan and so on*

  1. Brenton,
    Glad you enjoyed the movies!!! You needed to add more about the stereotpying that went in on the movies. I will consider your suggestion for the next movie - in the meantime enjoy "Gone With The Wind"!! 90%
