Aside from a few small changes to some of their names and events, this is an extremely accurate depiction of real life mob life, and Tommy was even crazier than in the movie lol
Paulie wasn't a boss, he was a capo.
The real Tommy once shot a total stranger on the street.
The Godfather is how the Mob wanted to be viewed.
Goodfellas is the most accurate depiction of what the life is like.
This actually did involve the Five Families: Henry, Jimmy and Tommy were all associates (or “connected guys”) of the Lucchese Family, in with Paulie Vario’s crew.
Tommy was killed IRL specifically by John Gotti’s Gambino crew for killing two made guys who worked with Gotti (Billy Batts and another guy named Foxy). They got Paulie’s permission first.
It was Paulie who told Gotti about what Tommy did. Tommy had done something really bad (even by his standards) that pissed Paulie off, but he couldn't act directly against him without alienating Jimmy.
Ray Liotta was 36 playing a 21 year old. Also, most Italian weddings have a Busta (boosta) where you give an envelope of cash to the bride and groom.
6:35 "You should always not say anything..."
a wise woman that will make an excellent lawyer 🙂
Yup, Tommy did those things and was even more psychopathic than portrayed in the film.
Love the way you guys noticed the camera work and the sound design and the film-making elements. I'd say half the reactors who do this movie notice some of that stuff, and the other half are so caught up in the story and the speed of it all that it just goes past them on a first viewing. (understandably so!) I also like how you included little things in your edit that some reactors skip: all the Peteys and Pauls at the wedding; the wives gossiping. Id love to see you do some other great De Niro/Scorsese collaborations (one of the most famous actor-director relationships ever). They followed this movie up the next year with a CRAZY thriller: "Cape Fear". Great movie, their biggest hit....and yet only ONE reaction for it so far. So I definitely recommend doing that one. Also the movie they did before "Goodfellas": "The King Of Comedy"! You've NEVER seen De Niro like that. If you've ever seen "Joker", it's basically a combination of "The King Of Comedy" and another De Niro/Scorsese collab "Taxi Driver". "The King Of Comedy" and "Cape Fear" need WAY more reactions in relation to their place in film history and specifically De Niro and Scorsese. So I hope you guys do them! Guaranteed you'll have something to say about them, guaranteed you'll get views.
The real Henry Hill lived in North Platte Nebraska wrote The Wiseguy Cookbook," released in 2002.
It’s not a Italian accent it’s a New York accent.
Paulie was a “Captain” in the Luchesse crime family
Tommy was a soldier
Jimmy and Henry were “associates”
The Luchesse crime family was later absorbed by the Gambino Family, making Paulies “Boss” none other than John Gotti. Whose friendship is the reason Tommy, Jimmy, and Henry were able to do whatever they wanted.
9:36 the sound that sarah makes 😆
So many Italian Americans married non Italians that they changed the rule in the 1990's to only the Father has to be of Italian decent to be a made man.
What they don't mention is that that bar Henry owns where they run into Batts, he bought it as an attempt to get away from the mob life and didn't tell them about it, but they just started showing up and he couldn't tell them to go away. And then Tommy and Jimmy do that to Batts in his place. They're so deranged and inconsiderate, they just involve him without even asking. The movie doesn't put too fine a point on it, but Henry was terrified of his "friends" from very early on.
That's a new bit if information l can file away in my Goodfellas trivia database. Thanks!
Another thing worth mentioning is that when Batts gets whacked, people think that was brought on because of the comments he made about Tommy shining shoes. However, when Batts was in prison, Jimmy took over his businesses. Therefore, when Batts got out of prison, he wanted his enterprises back and Jimmy was NOT about to let him do that. In fact, just before Batts gets whacked, he says to Jimmy "I did my time. I got mouths to feed."
Nobody here has Italian accents. They have New York or New Jersey accents.
loving this channel, hope you guys stick with it. we need more non extrovert reaction channels.
I agree. They're intelligent, they're cool, they're articulate, they watch the movie first and do commentary second. I want them to watch every great movie ever! 😄
If they could improve their editing. It’s HORRIBLE
@@phillychick4196 editing seems fine to me.
18:29 he will think twice before he hits a woman again
The holy trinity of Mafia on screen is Godfather, Goodfellas, and The Sopranos (TV show). You're right that the godfather was kind of a mythical ideolized version of the Mafia and this movie was a more realistic version of how it actually was. The Sopranos was even more real (but necessarily more violent). Anyway good reaction keep up the good work.
Like a few other Scorsese films, I didn't know quite what to think of this movie the first time I saw it - which was opening weekend. I mean, here is this title "Goodfellas" - and there was not one good person in this entire movie. But after contemplating it a few months it dawned on me - that was the POINT of the movie. Martin Scorsese made clear that there is nothing honorable about these people - they were lowlifes. So when I watched the movie the second time, I couldn't believe how funny I found a lot of the movie. And the biggest laugh? The idea that Tommy was so crazy even the mafia had to whack him. Now 33 years after the movie's release, this is probably easily in my top 20 movies of all time. I love this film.
Donnie Brasco is about the FBI agent Joe Pistone that went under cover in the Bananno crime family. It's a great movie check it out.
Thank you guys for reacting this masterpiece Goodfellas directed by Martin Scorsese starring Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and Ray Liotta👍👍👍
Watch Donnie Brasco next!
Great reaction, I really enjoyed your commentary
This is my favorite movie of all time, I've watched it a hundred times.
Some (maybe too many) suggestions. I hope you take some into consideration:
-No Country For Old Men
-Pulp Fiction
-Drive (2011)
-Memento
-The Thing (1982)
-Reservoir Dogs
-Monty Python and the Holy Grail
-The Witch (2015)
-Kill Bill 1 and 2
Now, if you excuse me, I'm going to watch the Fargo reaction :)
'Fat' Andy ended up doimg life without parole in real life.
It wasn't That kind of household it was every household,,, if you didn't show up to school for months or something crazy like that you were definitely going to get your ass beat,, Henry always had issues and was prone to always take the easy way,, his 4 siblings weren't like that which is why they grow up to be normal people
Their are 5 families in new York,lucchese, Gambino, Bonanno, Genovese,Columbo. The are part of the lucchese. And there are other families in Chicago, Milwaukee,Kansas city,Boston, Philadelphia
tali was broken for a few weeks and she was a roommate... ... she walked in and... i was umm"alone"...
They never really shot him in the trunk..just stabbed him..Henry said that before he died.
The real Henry Hill...was a nobody in the Bonanno Family
Check out the movie American Gangster(2007) starring Denzel Washington and it’s based on a true story.
It would be great to see you do a reaction for UPGRADE 2018 its a very underrated movie and i can tell you it's definitely one of the best 21st century sci-fi movie. Only just 3 million dollars budget they managed to make something much brilliant and much better than most Hollywood movies these days. I highly recommend for you to see it 👍
Here is some others hopefully that you can do a reaction too
Dark City
Reign of Fire
Speed Racer
Ninja Assassin
Burn After Reading
LA Confidential
Cube 1997
Exam
The Shallows (quite rare to see a woman as the main actor so your sister might interest in this one)
You should do a reaction of the movies Donnie Brasco, Casino (De Niro and Joe Pesci are in that movie as well), Bronx Tale(De niro again) and the Godfather trilogy
0:02 hi simon and sister sarah. you should introduce yourselves each video, you never know if it's someone's first watch. i looked through each video and you only introduced your sisters by name once. heck, you only introduced yourself two or three times. 🙂
ideally i would like to see movies new to you both. i'm watching, but ideally... 🙂
14:16 $100 goes a looooong way
Hello guys please reacts this classic movies: Out of Africa (1985) Somewhere in Time (1980) Rain Man (1988) Driving Miss Daisy (1989) The Crying Game (1992) White Nights (1985) American Beauty (1999) American Gigolo (1980) and Risky Business (1983) all highly recommended👍👍👍
What would happen in half a second? I didn't get that.
Read the book Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi. It gives the true story this is based off of. And if you listen to the audiobook, it is narrated the same way
You’re just starting. I’m going to not fall asleep I hope. East coast. This movie is good
😂 yeah that scene Ray Liotta laughing as my screensaver. Rip Ray Liotta🙏
33:45 origin of "Karen"
That Sam Jackson guy has potential 😏😂
React to blood in blood out
It will be very interesting to see your reaction to the films Robocop and Robocop 3 👍
This is a good movie with a lot of life lessons. (Don't snitch). Thanks for another great reaction.
A better life lesson is don't become a gangster. That's the life lesson of this movie, not "don't snitch". Don't snitch? He snitched! He snitched and he lived for another 30 years! If anything, the life lesson of the movie is DO snitch! 😂
@@TTM9691 Exactly this. I think this is why films like this get sometimes get criticized for glamorizing gangsters. Not the film themselves, but how some simpler folk take them. The idea of not breaking confidences maybe a theoretical virtue. But as a life lesson, at least for respectable people, covering up criminality, particularly at this level, is far outweighed by the virtue of truth-telling or whistleblowing for the benefit of the common good.
@@Hexon66 Well, people have been babbling about movies glamorizing bad behavior since the movies started, and specifically gangster movies since the days of James Cagney, Edward G. Robinson and Paul Muni. Personally, I couldn't give a flying f**k about people's caterwauling about movies, especially when those same people are usually couch potatoes with three-digit cable bills. People who watch TV all the time and then complain about "the media" or people who watch movies their whole lives and then complain about "Hollywood" are the most tedious slugs on planet Earth, plain and simple. (But aside from that, I get your point!)
@@TTM9691 lol “Aaron West” has never been in a situation remotely close to this movie in his life 😂
Lot of actors in this movie who went on to play in the Sopranos...surprised you didn't notice or mention it...guess you're to young
That was one of the most adorable statements I've ever heard. Was the IRS not that serious back then😂 gangsters not going to go up to the IRS and Billy Hate by the way we just broke into one of the lockers at the JFK and stole about $80,000 how much should I give the government hahaha🤜🤛✌❤🙏
Just to help you 2, your voice volume is WAAAYYYYYYY to loud and the movie volume is to low!
Way to much talking, you show the blow up but not the buildup to it... there isnt 4 seconds without someone talking over the scene. I did like the amount of time..... but its just mainly the young guy talking... it like 90% of the guy talking 5% of her answering the guy n 5% of scenes! Just way way to much talking n not near enough of the main scene n what main scenes there are they show the middle blow up part of the scene and none of the buildup to it.... its all backwards in how a good reaction should be done. Ok, with that said i totally understand that i may seem like im being a dick, or way to hard on them ect ect.. i gave such a long n kinda semiharsh comments but its only because i want them to succeed and do great and be very successful in their youtube channel endeavors. I like them.. i know they can do better and have something great here! God bless them n their channel n i hope ypur not mad at me PUB CHANNEL... i say this with truth outta love so dont take this to hard... youve got mega talents... n i wanna see ya shine big! Ill be watching! Thank you both Pub.. for doing this movie!
😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎 legendary
Not a first time reaction
+ c a s I n o *
There a little young to get some of the jokes….I would like to see their reaction to the The Godfather
They've seen "The Godfather", I believe. She mentions "The Godfather" in the reaction and they both talk of it with some knowledge. I'm still early in the reaction but so far they have been getting all the jokes. In fact, I'm impressed with some of the stuff they're picking up.
Here’s a list of the top movies reactors watch. All great movies.
Forrest Gump, gladiator, good Will hunting, Braveheart, the green mile, saving private Ryan. Also tropic thunder, there’s something about Mary.
I do not care about the camera work.
Okay?
Are you two really heavily medicated?
An hour long edit? Ain't no one got time for that.
Would love to date sister 😏
Most boring reaction ever
Wow edit to this was horrible
Yeah to choppy,🥴
You two chillin in a bed together is kinda weird. Just sayin. Thought you BF/GF at the start. Maybe sitting at a table or somethin would be better?
It's hard to follow what the movie is about. You two cut it up so much with small talk, and it makes it most confusing. Not that your comments are bad, it's just you don't show long enough clips of the movie.
That's how reactions on youtube work. You can't put the whole movie, sometimes you can get a copyright strike just for a few seconds of footage. It's impressive that the video is as long as it is in the first place.
For full lenght, check their patreon (same with most reaction channels)
They made Tommy look like a boy scouting this movie your sister would be absolutely terrified of the real Thomas he was an absolute maniac the only person he was ever said about taking out with Stacks Edwards everybody else he was quick to kill Jimmy had to convince him of the virtues of wagging stacks. I screwed up big-time. He parked the getaway van in a no-parking Zone took the money Jimmy gave him got high with his girlfriend for 3 days with the van outside of the apartment building in a no-parking Zone not very brilliant
Fun fact Billy Batts didn't look like that he looked more like Jerry Lewis in the 80s. And part that tickles me the most about this scene is Billy Batts was actually part of my language pissed off at Jimmy but he was afraid of Jimmy like most everybody was afraid of Jimmy Billy Batts was a made guy in The Gambino family Billy was away locked up in prison and while he was away Jimmy muscled in on all of his action she wanted it back Jimmy and Tommy weren't about to give it back to him way more complicated than they had the ability to put into a movie
I feel like I had a stroke while reading this
@@gabi-chan7806 good news you didn't because you wrote this. Cuz if you did have a stroke you wouldn't be able to function right you talkin out the side of your head like your name was Mary Jo buttafuco😂😂🤷
Your sister is beautiful
Strictly speaking just for the airport Paul vario Molly is a captain and the Lucchese family he owns the union which means the union rep resident there it is in Pauly's pocket. But any of the five families could hijack out of JFK any of the airports. It was open. Oh and they're going to show you Michael franzese who was a captain in the Colombo family is not friendly or close to Henry Hill Jared Michael franzese was making like I think two or four million dollars a month just on his gas scam he's not going to mess with a low-level dude who is just an associate of the lucchesi's. In the hierarchy of the world of that world Michael franzese wouldn't even have a conversation with Henry they might say hello to each other and that's about it they wouldn't be talking any kind of business. Because that would be punching way above Henry's weight class. The only reason why Henry can even talk to Paulie like he does is because he's known poly since he was a small child. Otherwise you wouldn't even be able to have a conversation with Paul either. Unless he's on record as Paulie's associate. The History Channel not put two weeks ago first time aired the special on Lufthansa Heist with one of the last living Heist members and one of my favorite podcasters CZcamsrs John ponisi who was an actual member of the Lucchese family. Former member of Lucchese family super super smart guy. And a strong advocate for doing the right thing staying out of trouble. Anywho figured you might like a little info and it's more like 5 or 8million dollars that they got from Lufthansa
By the way this would never happen for an associate of anybody's family Gambino's lucchesi's the Westside Colombo's no way. The only one I know of in this is recorded in history that this has ever happened for at the Copacabana is Michael franzese his father Sonny franzese the former underboss of the Colombo's he they brought a table out onto the stage whenever he wanted to go to the Copa so while you were watching from down below if Henny Youngman was up onstage Michael franzese and whoever you was with which rate up on stage next to Henny Youngman Frank Sinatra whoever it was. But definitely not a hang around. But yeah check it out it was actually Sunny friends scenes that had tables brought up
