Worst casting choice in the movie, nothing like the real guy

[@justinhopper5941]

One of the best mob movies. Pacino and Depps chemistry was amazing. They had a real father son dynamic in this.

[@charlieross-BRM]

I had read Joe Pistone's book many years before and remembered so much of the mundane little details of his interactions with those mobsters. A lot of movie goers commented that the thing with Lefty and his parking meters had no place in such a serious movie, like it was a distraction made up by the director out of the blue for comedy. Read the book and it sums up a lot of the life of small time guys like him who weren't ever going to be going anywhere, according to Pistone. This is the first film where I admired Depp for some deep skill in drama. He scared the hell out of me in Black Mass.

No one said that Charlie. We don’t care you read the book either.

It's a story of conflict of loyalty? Really? Not according to Joe Pistone. He literally said he had no mixed feelings and didn't feel the least bit bad about screwing all these guys over. Hollywood made Depp's character more sensible and torn, but the real guy wasn't in any way torn over what to do.

[@whiskeyandcigarettes2785]

Joe has said that the only thing that bothered him was knowing that him coming out of the operation was going to get people killed because it isn't his job to get people killed.

"Donnie Brasco" is just an Italian name, yet it sounds so mafia like that you wanna see the movie. Now u know why they didn't call the movie, "Alex Smith" or "Jean Pierre", or "Jose Gonzalez" or "Vladimir Vosrof" or "Zhao li Chan" or "Abdullah BinSalla" or "Mamood Amadinijad" ... none of these sound scary enough to be a mob name for a violent movie.
