4 out of 10 brilliant
Paul from Dublin, 05 Aug 2007
a definite must see for gangster fans. Pachino really shines as a washed up gangster and Depp, didn't play the pretty boy rookie like I thought he would. a really classic. It will make you reach for the Godfather straight afterwards

What's it about....
Joe Pistone (Johnny Depp) is an FBI who ingratiates himself into the Mafia pecking order by posing as "jewel man" Donnie Brasco. He finds his loyalties divided when Lefty Ruggiero, a jaded hit man, takes him on as a protege and places real trust in him. The two men form a friendship--and a criminal partnership--that jeopardizes Brasco's mission and obscures the boundaries between the law and the underworld. The film is based on the autobiography DONNIE BRASCO, MY UNDERCOVER...
