A great crime thriller as a mafia accountant is taken hostage at his state of the art home. Bruce has to play negotiater while the mafia have his family. Great build up in tension as the clock starts ticking down for Bruce to do his bit and the stakes are raised.

This is a nice spin on the Mafia film, it gets plenty of laughs when it needs it, while trying to show the world could still be looking for them.

Classic
An all time classic. It feels like 2 films in one with the flash backs of how it all started in the first place. The best Mafia film around.

A great film charting the life of a guy who joins the local Mafia from a young age, recalling the key events in his life. Very violent at times.

Mafia masterpiece
A great film about a Mafia family as the role of the Godfather passes from Father to Son. This is a must watch film and only bettered by the sequel slightly. Brando's dialogue can be hard to understand at first and the size of the family make it hard to keep track of everything going on. It's just a great story to lose yourself in.

A retro tale of revenge
Not everyone loved Mafia 2, but I did. I thought the story at the time was one of the best that I had ever played through, so I was extremely excited to get my hands on the third outing.
When the game was released though, I held off buying it as all I heard was how it was full of glitches and bugs. After a couple of months and a few updates, I eventually got round to playing it
Unfortunately Lincoln's story isn't as interesting as Vito's was. This is still a decent gangster story, but it is to Mafia 2 what Black Mass is to Goodfellas. They are both pretty good but one is a league above the other.

I heard you paint houses
With an awesome cast featuring Pacino, De Niro, Pesci and directed by Scorsese you get excited about another Mafia film with these guys. Although weighing in at a hefty 3 hours 20 minutes run time you hope it will be entertaining as their other Mafia films. For the first couple of hours it does a good job. It gets a little bogged down in the politics of Union business and competing presidents at times. It shows the Story of the Irishman played by De Niro and how over the years he becomes involved working for the mafia in a few roles. If they left out the final hour I would score it higher. Sadly at this point the film drags quite badly without the extra hour really adding anything to the story. Watch it for the cast if you are a fan but this is no @GoodFellas (1990) or @Casino (1995)
