We recently asked Facebook readers to list their favorite mobster movies. While the resulting list contained some expected classics, one dark horse rode in -- The Big Short. The acclaimed 2015 movie had nothing to do with mobsters on the surface. But consider the way bankers rigged a system to skim profits out of the housing market. Sounds like a new take on the old Casino story, and both ended with things blowing up! A couple of television series' were mentioned, too. But we kept it to movies. Are these the best mobster movies ever? Maybe not. But they're our favorites. You got a problem with that? In case you're wondering, the top two titles were A Bronx Tale and Goodfellas, followed by The Godfather, then The Godfather Part Two, Casino, Donnie Brasco, and The Untouchable rounding out the top. If someone were putting together a boxed set, that would be a fine starter set!
