Those are all good. Also Boyz in the hood.


A underrated one is South Central< it's based on a true story of how the crips gang was started. Directed by Olivier Stone.

American me is a realistic gangster movie from 1992 based on a true story. One of the guys that helped with information for the script was killed for sharing too much.

In no particular order, my favorites:

The Godfather
The Godfather II
Goodfellas
Gangs of New York
Donnie Brasco (very underrated)
The Departed (iffy on if it is "gangster")


Although I also like these, but don't feel the make the cut as a "gangster" movie. These at least involve the mob/mafia:

The Untouchables
Boondock Saints
Pulp Fiction

Donnie Brasco is extremely overrated.

I'll add a few more:

Road to Perdition
Millers Crossing
Casino
Once Upon a Time in America
White Heat
Mean Streets
A Bronx Tale
The Pubic Enemy
Little Caesar

You can rank them any way you want as long as #1 is The Godfather and #2 is The Godfather II.

New Jack City is a good one and paved the way for the urban gangster movies that followed.

Such a slow paced and often times boring movie. It's not a bad movie but certainly not on a list of "best" gangster movies.

King of new york sucked. You can't tell me the modern urban gangster movies are more tailored after kings of ny over New Jack City? Nino Brown is a legend. I can't even remember the main characters name in kings of ny.
