Goodfellas better than The Godfather and Scarface?!
Question: A lot of my friends think that Goodfellas is better than The Godfather trilogy and Scarface. After watching it, definitely do not agree. It was a very good movie, but I didn't like how he sold out everybody at the end of the movie.

That is like a three way tie, all those have good plots...entertaining...they all are timeless, they have that "re-watch-ability."
But a lot of people like Goodfellas because it was based on a true story, while the Godfather was based off a novel by . Puzo. Scarface is entertaining because there is all those catchy phases like "say hello to my little friend" :)
Have you seen Casino? It's a pretty good move, but not as good as the movies above.
Definitely better than Scarface.... Better than Godfather Trilogy...
...not better than GF I and/or II, but III was such a boat load of suck it might rate!
No way better than The Godfather as a trilogy. Maybe better than Godfather 3. I do, however think it's better than ScizzzarFAce. I personally like A Bronx Tale better, but Goodfellas was good. lil bit. lil bit.
Godfather II was the BEST!!!
good fellas a nice west coast type film but does not hold a candle to the first two godfather films.GODFATHER trilogy will go down in film history as a classic
maybe better than scarface, but nowere near as good as Godfather
your friends need a slap for thinking that
I can't say for sure which one is better than the other and I probably never will... I love all three (and consider them my favourite movies) for many different reasons - the actors, the directors, the drama, the action, the one liners, the plot lines and mainly the flawed characteristics in the main characters.
Well, I'll rate them first :
1.The Godfather Part I and Part II
2.GoodFellas
3.Scarface
I really think The Godfather as the best crime/gangster movie ever made. Sure GoodFellas is terrific, but nothing could top The Godfather. I can't understand why there are people who say Scarface is better than The Godfather. Scarface is hugely overrated (well, to me).
By the way, GoodFellas is based on a true story of Henry Hill, so in no way they could alter the ending, because that's what really happened to him in the 50s...
