excellent

This movie is a must have for aspiring actors/actress.Al Pacino played the role so well, he gave us insight into a mobster's mind. He was a muderer, criminal but he was just trying to survive so we ended up feeling sorry for him.And Johnny, what ...can I say, he has NEVER ever failed in playing a role. We could tell beneath the cold emotionless facade of Donnie Brasco, there is someone else living there. The story telling was not good, many loose ends, but Johnny and Al played onto each other so well, it made the movie watchable. Read more Less

stylish, violent, moving, pacino. Superb

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 24, 2001

a classic ganster movie mixing stunning acting and shocking violence with a cool cast and moving sub theme. Pacino vouches for Depp; an undercover cop. depp falls for the gangster scene pulling pacino into certain death. as usual pacino is top and de...pp delivers a suprisingly fitting, hard nosed character.

Excellent film!

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 19, 2000

With good actors and scenes, Donnie Brasco is a great film all around. Johnny Depp stars as FBI undercover agent Joseph D. Pistone, who infiltrates the violent mafia underworld. Al Pacino stars as Lefty, a memeber of the italian mafia. This movie de...scribes the words honor, betrayal, and frienship. A must see for Mafia fans. Read more Less

Pacino's best movie

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 12, 2000

There is only one good movie from jonny Depp and that is this one. On the other hand this is merely because Pacino is really great in this film.

BEST MOVIE OF JOHNNY DEPP (SO FAR)

THIS IS KIND OF MOVIE JOHNNY NEEDED TO BOOST HIS CARRER UP HAS RESPECTABLE ACTOR. SINCE TOM HANSEN OF 21 JUMP STREET SERIES. BY THE PUBLIC HE HAS NOTBEEN TAKING TO SERIOUSLY WITH THE ROLE HE HAS SORT OF TAKING AFTER JUMP STREET, AND SOME HIS MOVIES ...WERE MOST OF TIME A FAILURE OR UNKNOWN. THIS TIMEHE PLAYS BACK THE ROLE OF WHAT MADE HIM FAMOUS (UNDERCOVER COP), IF YOU LIKE GOD-FATHERS OR GOOD FELLAS OR CASINO, YOU PROBABLY LIKE THIS ONE, ESPESCIALLY WITH A BRILLANT PERFORMANCE AGAIN BY AL PACINO.THIS IS JOHNNY DEPP`S ONE HIS BEST FILM SO FAR.
