Goodfellas is better than Chinatown.
Chinatown was good, but a little lackluster in my eyes despite its hype. GoodFellas exceeded my expectations - even for a ganster movie. Easy choice.
All the way with Zampa on this one. Chinatown was good, but didn't blow my mind. Goodfellas sticks with me all these years later...

Chinatown for sure. I like GoodFellas a lot, but Chinatown both encapsulates everything about film noir from a '70s perspective, and then goes forward from that, basically creating the template for neo-noir. Anything that stands that perfectly at the center of one of my favorite genres has to get my vote. Plus, it's a damn fine good time at the movies.

Gotta pick the '70s classic. Nicholson's best performance in my eyes.

I suppose I can see how somebody else might love Chinatown but, to me, it was merely okay. GoodFellas obliterates it.

Chinatown is the better film. GoodFellas is terrific, but Chinatown is in a whole other league that gives it the easy victory. Chinatown wins!
