The Departed by a hair over Goodfellas
Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
In a career filled with great movies, Goodfellas is just too amazing to vote for anything else.

King of Comedy needs some love too, as does Hugo (if just for the visuals).
Christ, I forgot about King of Comedy.
That may actually be the winner for me.
That's the kind of movie that you either love or absolutely despise.

That's a really strange vote. Explain please.
Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
Yeah, King of Comedy rarely gets its due. I remember when it was coming out, thinking "Jerry Lewis...really?"
And then wow.

I agree, I feel like the Departed is an inferior version of GoodFellas that in 20 years will have zero effect on pop culture while GoodFellas will still be quoted, well Pesci mainly.
Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
Raging Bull
Goodfellas
Taxi Driver
Casino
Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
Gangs of New York. After that my favorites would be Shutter Island, The Aviator, Casino, The Departed, and The Color of Money. Only movie I can think of that I didn't really enjoy was Bringing Out the Dead. Honestly cant even remember much about it.

Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
Raging Bull is #1 followed by Taxi Driver then Good Fellas. Raging Bull is just so damn good.

Never saw Taxi Driver, but I couldnt get through Raging Bull. Maybe I didn't give it a fair chance.
Of the ones I've seen, I'd say Good Fellas.

Watch Taxi Driver asap. You talkin to me? You talkin to me?
As for GoodFellas, any film that features Gimme Shelter AND Monkey Man is automatically at worst a B+.
Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
Hard to believe some have not seen Taxi Driver and Goodfellas. Get on that pronto you won't be disappointed.
Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
I haven't seen most of those movies in a long time. Some of them I don't think I've ever seen.
I picked The Departed by a hair over Gangs of New York. Leonardo DiCaprio and Scorcese are great together.
Re: Best feature film directed by Martin Scorsese
Casino is my favorite movie so its a must I vote for it.
