I've had my fill of mob movies and the glorification of violence. But Goodfellas is one that I've gone back to repeatedly, because it leavens the serious themes and chronic violence with humor (although even then it's of a grisly sort). And because it's a great story with suitably dramatic direction. Rating: A
