Always thought Goodfellas was overrated. An entertaining movie, but not as great as it's made out to be IMO.
This is my take on just about every mob movie. The plots are always straight lines and not arcs; ditto character development; nobody ever learns any lessons or changes, they just get offed, die of old age, or go to jail; nothing that makes me actually like or care about anybody. It's just mob things happening and then credits. Like watching a history documentary but of a fake history, so I fail to see the point.

It's as unamerican as not having type-II diabetes or a belief in actual angels. Insanity, really.

I strongly disagree with your position on the genre. I still laffed.
