GoodFellas
GoodFellas doesn't dominate, but it wins consistently. 62% across 292 head-to-head matchups is a strong bracket record — well above the 50% that means winning as often as losing. A masterpiece by nearly any measure, operating at a level of craft and energy that most films never approach. Its only vulnerability in competition is a recognition gap against more mainstream opponents. Among Martin Scorsese's films on BingeBracket, nothing beats it.
Synopsis
The true story of Henry Hill, a half-Irish, half-Sicilian Brooklyn kid who is adopted by neighbourhood gangsters at an early age and climbs the ranks of a Mafia family under the guidance of Jimmy Conway.
The round-by-round numbers don't move much: 59%, 58%, 75%. GoodFellas's strength isn't in any particular round — it's in the absence of a round where it falls off.
Against E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, the margin is razor-thin: 50%. The most contested matchup in GoodFellas's record. GoodFellas dominates The Departed at 79% — one of the most decisive matchups in its record. Saving Private Ryan at 79% is another comfortable win.
GoodFellas owns Spielberg vs. Scorsese. The Departed is the usual final opponent, and at 79% it's not much of a contest.
Of Martin Scorsese's 4 films tracked here, GoodFellas sits on top. The Departed follows at 57%.
