A brilliantly-made film with all the fascination of a snake pit: a warm-hearted family saga except that the members are thieves and murderers. Cutting would help, but the duller conversational sections do heighten the cunningly judged moments of suspense

Still one of the greatest
Still one of the greatest films of all time. It is the ultimate film of the mafia genre. I would highly recommend it.
