Mafia Movies

I think most men love Mafia movies. My husband does and I must say he loves these with a passion especially the scenes with adrenaline rushing car chases among alleys and/or scenic highways.

No question why Mafia Wars is one of the more popular game app in Facebook (which the hubby does not play, btw).

Most Mafia bosses are portrayed as mostly surrounded by a posse of heavily set armed (not visible) men, has cohiba cigars on their hands, have big bullet-proof cars, have beautiful daughters, live in posh homes and have slick hair that seemed to have been combed with pomade. Don’t ask me why I know what a pomade is please 😀

I also like movies that are Mafia-themed but sometimes the plot gets predictable that it gets boring because one gets a feeling that “I’ve seen that before”.

If there was one tagline I’d probably remember from a Mafia movie, it would be this from Scarface:

In the spring of 1980 the port at Mariel Harbor was opened, and thousands set sail for the United States. They came in search of the American Dream. One of them found it on the sun washed avenues of Miami… wealth, power and passion beyond his wildest dreams. He was Tony Montana but the world will remember him by another name… Scarface
