as opposed to the guy getting the stuffing beat out of him, extorted, shakendown, brutalized or murdered

the mafia is evil...not glamorous.... get real

Thanks for letting us know the mafia is evil (rolling the eyes). The movie does show that, but it is a movie and regardless will be in the top three of any list. I have never run into anyone who visualizes themselves as the Godfather. Exactly where did you grow up that everyone you know visualizes themselves as the Godfather? I’m sorry you take it so personally.

It certainly is,but the movie is still terrific.

The most memorable scene from a mafia movie for me is what happens to the restaurateur in Goodfellas. The POS character played by Pesci never pays his bill, and when the restaurant owner goes to the godfather to complain, they turn his restaurant into a money laundering operation until every last dreg is squeezed out and the owner is left with nothing.

That's how the mafia needed to be depicted.
