I can see that.
I’ve rewatched it thrice now, and it’s a film I’ve grown to respect more each time.

#16738

another bold take

not a huge fan of Goodfellas

def a good movie but i don’t exactly get the overflowing praise

the opening scene tho is easy top 5 all time tho i will give it that

i didnt love everything everywhere all at once

I haven’t watched enough Scorsese films.
I’ve seen The Irishman and Killers of the Flower Moon (the latter of which was my favorite film of the year), as well as the first, like, thirty minutes of The Wolf of Wall Street.

Scorsese is one of those directors where if you love him you’ll love his entire output but if you dont you struggle to get through his stuff

unless thats just me which is fair

its hard for me to define a favorite film but I can say films I’ve seen 3+ times that if I were to start watching them right now I’d be excited and watch them all the way through

  • 12 angry men
  • Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
  • Freddy got Fingered
  • The Social Network
  • The Big Short

and then I’m just going to lump a lot of generic death game movies here too, because they fit the criteria while also ostensibly being just okay mostly

  • The Belko experiment
  • Circle
  • Battle Royale
  • The first hunger games movie

Uh…
I’m not great with recommendations.
Marshal might like Kind Hearts and Coronets if they’re alright with the n-word being dropped thrice in the span of ten seconds during the penultimate scene.
Ishmael might enjoy Unbroken? Wild shot is that I think she’s a Western fan, which could be completely off.
I’m not entirely certain what to recommend you.

It is on the watchlist already from secret cookie thread.

I… I will probably watch it but I need to be clear that it’s not because I’m, quote, “alright with the n-word being dropped thrice in the span of ten seconds”
