ray liotta rolls over in goodfella's because he gets busted. and it's just the last 1/4 of the film where that happens. the plotline in infernal affairs/the departed would be derivative if goodfellas started there and also included a mafia mole on the narcotics squad. i don't see the similarities other than they're both mafia movies.

Both mafia movies done by scorsese but thats where it ends. I don't understand the ripoff thing either. But hey...art is about interpretation.
