No. I'm not quite there, but I am a bigger fan of Casino that most who love Goodfellas, I think. They're very, very close in quality for me. The overarching story of the skim and the folks behind it, and so forth, is much more interesting (and significant) than the heist crew that happened upon 2 big scores at Idlewild, although both films were extraordinarily well done.

Goodfellas was gripping from beginning to end.
Casino, although good literally had swaths of boredom and seemed to want to educate the audience on the business end more than actually entertain.
As a side note. When spider was killed in goodfellas it upset the shite out of me.

Yeah...harsh...but can only agree with the dude who called the OP a fricking retard.
Goodfellas >>>>> Casino
It's really not even close.
That's like saying that Carlito's Way > Godfather I or II
Just...a terrible opinion.

I hate the relationship between Sharon Stone and Deniro in Casino. No way any sane man puts up with that shite. She’d have been in a hole in the desert inside of a year. I get angry everytime she’s on screen.
Beyond that, casino is amazing.
Still like Goodfellas more. It’s a perfect film

I like Casino a lot, but it ain’t Goodfellas. It’s a tier below. It kind of drags a little bit at the end.

Yes the bat scene is tough to watch

Casino is great but not better than Goodfellas. Now go go home and get your fricking shine box

You are wrong. You are so wrong! May God have mercy on your mortal soul.

I don’t mind you having that opinion, but I do disagree with you. Goodfellas is a better movie IMO

really don’t like Sharon stone as an actress
Ginger may be one of the all time great movie villains. Stone did a hell of a job making you genuinely hate her in that role.

I’ll still take Goodfellas but Casino has some great scenes.
“If you ever come back again, ever, to take her money, next time bring a pistol. Don’t be stupid.”

I just find Casino more entertaining.
I could see this. It's a little looser, a little less intense, can fee lighter.

As a film, no. But that doesn't mean you can't prefer it more. Nothing wrong with that.

Not at all. Casino is probably my favorite movie.

Nothing wrong with Casino, but it ain't no Goodfellas.
Posted on 4/26/19 at 10:00 am to Brazos
Casino is good, very good, but not on the same level, IMO

Mob-controlled bookies generally aren't sane.

Yes, you are alone. No comparison. Goodfellas was 100% better than Casino. But I dont dish Casino. It was a good movie.
