i gotta disagree the ending was so overly dramatic and the movie was so fukking long and had so much shyt that wasn't needed

still a good movie but could of been an all time masterpiece

Cosign this, movie is way too fukking long. Honestly, let's not act like it doesn't owe part of it's legacy to just featuring DeNiro/Pacino :usure:

One of the greatest movies I have ever seen...

From start to finish epic on every level, that bank heist is still the GOAT ever filmed...

I'm still conflicted every time I watch that movie with Neil's decision at the end...sometimes i'm like man fukk that beef shyt just fly away with your shorty and live a happy life...Other times I'm like Neil was just too real...can't let that fakkit Wayne Grow get way with ratting out his crew and killing his homie...He did what an honorable man and real G would have done and I respect that...:salute:

Nah, De Niro was dead wrong at the end of the movie, he lived by his principles yes, but it's more like 'Carlitos Way', where he forgot he needed to change those ways of thinking because he was leaving the life for one, and 2 he was in love with Edie, that scene is just heartbreaking. One of my top 10 or maybe top 5 for sure, 'Thief' is great but this is near perfection. The only part that I would have trimmed was between Wayne Gro and the hooker, wasn't needed imo.

I agree. Just a case of trying too hard to be an epic crime story when you've already succeeded. Some meat could've been trimmed.

My life? No, my life...My life's a disaster zone. I got a stepdaughter so fukked up...because her real father is this large-type a$$hole. I got a wife. We're passing each other on the down slope of a marriage. My third. Because I spend all my time chasing guys like you around the block.That's my life.

A guy told me one time: "Don't get yourself attached to anything you can't walk out on in 30 seconds...if you feel the heat around the corner." If you're on me and you got to move when I move, how do you expect to keep a marriage?


So, if you spot me coming around that corner...you'll just walk out on this woman ? Not say good-bye?

That's the discipline.

That's pretty vacant.

It is what it is. It's that, or we both better go do something else.
I don't know how to do anything else.
Neither do I.
I don't want much to either.
Neither do I.

Some of my favorite lines of all time….
