Donnie Brasco - The Common Bond Between a Mafia Hitman and an Undercover Agent

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2008
The Bottom Line:

Donnie Brasco is more about relationship between the two leads rather than the violence of the mafia.

Review: I doubt that the American cinema has been more fascinated of any subject than it has of the mafia. The way it s often been portrayed, you would think there were wall-to-wall gangsters all over the Northeast, especially in New York...

Most Underrated Gangster Flick?

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 1999
Review: Man, I couldn't find this flick in Epinions' alphabetical movie listing! Whatever made crime movie buffs, and movie fans in general, overlook this one beats the hell out of me. Both co-stars got snubbed by the Academy despite awesome performances,...

A Role Made For Pacino

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2000
Review: This has to be one of the best mob movies ever. Not only does it show some sweet gunplay scenes, but it also shows a different side to gangsters than most movies show. This movie has taken Pacino out of his usual roles as the main guy with...

You don't need Scorsese or Copolla to make a good gangster movie

Date of Review:  Mar 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a different take on a standard story this movie is for you.
Review: When it comes to modern gangster movies, it's really difficult to describe and review them without making comparisons to other films of the genre. I've always subscribed to the philosophy that any idea (no matter how many times it's been used...

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2000
Review:
Donnie Brasco, starring Johnny Depp, Al Pacino, Michael Madsen, Anne Heche and Bruno Kirby. Directed by Mike Newell. Rated R for sometimes explicit violence, language and brief nudity.

Understated Pacino gangster drama

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 1999
Review: More than 20 years ago, Al Pacino gained his fame by starring in the first two Godfather films. Now he?s returned to those roots by playing a thoroughly exhausted, much less successful Mafia man. Donnie Brasco, though, follows in the feet of...

"gimme a punch of salt..."

Date of Review:  Feb 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: Donnie Brasco is another great mob movie to rival the godfather and goodfellas.
Review: Donnie brasco is an excellent movie. If you like mob movies, this is an excellent addition to your collection. If you don't like mob movies, you should still give this one a try. It has more than great acting and typical mob violence. At its core,...

"I'm a spoke on a wheel. I am, and so are you."

Date of Review:  Oct 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: Call it a 4.5 and fughetaboutit.
Review: It was a match made in heaven. Like black and white in a cookie (yes, that?s Seinfeld reference, if anyone is keeping count). Abbot and Costello. Laurel and Hardy. James Bond and his flavor-of-the-week girl. I could sit here naming names all day,...

Best Mob Film Since Godfather

Date of Review:  May 3, 2000
Review: I?m not a huge fan of Mafia movies. The only reason I?ve watched the ones I have is that I?m Italian. Therefore, I wasn?t too enthusiastic when I sat down to watch Donnie Brasco. I would have been if I had known what a great movie this would turn...

"I'm not becoming them.......I am them."

Date of Review:  Jul 25, 2000
Review: "Donnie Brasco" falls into that unfortunate category of true stories that seem like a great movie idea, but sadly are not. The real life story of F.B.I. agent Joe Pistone leaves little room to be unpredictable, and no character for which to really...
