Goodfellas. It's Scorsese's definitive gangster movie.

Casino is, to me, derivative after that.

Never really liked Scarface.

Goodfellas

Haven't seen Scarface, but I'm confident it wouldn't change my answer.

1 great movie against two average ones, not a tough choice. Goodfellas.

Goodfellas easy. I also like Casino though. Never cared for Scarface.

Same. Casino though, deserves multiple re-watches. So layered, not saying Goodfellas isn't but Casino is very special, just not enough to top Goodfellas. As much as I'm a fan of De Palma, Scarface, IMO is a class below those mentioned. The Godfather, I would put that in the same class as Goodfellas, Casino and on the top of the pile also.

Yup this. Scarface is one of my most hated films and Goodfellas is quite a bit better than Casino which i still like.

I like all three movies.

But Goodfellas is a masterpiece for a reason.

I'm not a big fan of Scarface. Casino is good, but no where near the level of Goodfellas.

I chose Scarface-- I think it has a disadvantage in the poll cause of extreme overexposure though

Not really much competition, Goodfellas.

I'm a big cheerleader for Scarface, but you put Goodfellas on the list, so that's the end of that.

Goodfellas is my favorite of the three and I've even read the book it is based from, Wiseguy, by Nicholas Pileggi, who co-wrote the screenplay with Scorsese. Fantastic movie and fantastic book about Henry Hill.

Goodfellas all the way. I do like Scarface a lot though, but I was actually quite disappointed with Casino.

Goodfellas. Not even close.

I like the other two very much as well, though. Especially Casino, which also has some amazing parts.
