Customer Rating:      Summary: Overall great movie Comment: Didn't expect Al Pacino and Johnny Depp to be in the SAME FILM. But that's not what makes this a great film. This is brilliant because of the story, the tension, the characters, and the setting that they're all in. Johnny Depp is one-of-a-kind as the FBI agent Joseph Pstione, who disguises himself as Donnie Brasco. His job is to give the Bureau information on a mob organization, which includes the aging hitman Left Ruggiero. The situation gets out of hand as Pistone/Brasco starts to adapt a bit too well in the mafia environment. This leads to a confrontation with his job and his own family.
Pacino, Depp, and Madsen give wonderful performances. Heche, Kirby, and Russo make a stunning supporting cast. Lots of tension and lots of drama and humor. I'd recommended it fully.
Grade: A
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Mob Story Comment: D. Brasco is a good story and is alot less violent than most mob movies. It isn't as good as the Godfather or Goodfellas. This movie shows the sacrifice of a F.B.I. agent who loses years of his life with his family to bring down the mob.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Great movie Comment: This is one of the best gangster movies ever made. Great acting, great filmmaking.
The extended version is great, as the additional scenes flesh out the story and just make the movie all that better, with more scenes!
Nothing crazy about the extras - just a few solid featurettes.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Donnie Brasco Comment: Excellent movie. Excellent cast, especially Johnny Depp and Al Pacino. Keeps you on the "edge of your seat" the whole time.
