Product Description: An fbi agent befriends a lowly hitman to gain entry to the mob. In the mid 1970s fbi agent joe pistone infiltrated the violent mafia underworld getting closer to its inner circle than any u.S. Law officer ever had. This suspenseful tale of friendship honor and betrayal is based on a true story. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 12/21/2004 Starring: Al Pacino Johnny Depp Run time: 127 minutes Rating: R Director: Mike Newell
Amazon.com: Based on a memoir by former undercover cop Joe Pistone (whose daring and unprecedented infiltration of the New York Mob scene earned him a place in the federal witness protection program), Donnie Brasco is like a de- romanticized, de-mythologized version of The Godfather. It offers an uncommonly detailed, privileged glimpse inside the world of organized crime from the perspective of the little guys at the bottom of Mafia hierarchy rather than from the kingpins at the top. Donnie Brasco is not only one of the great modern-day gangster movies to put in the company of The Godfather films andGoodFellas, but it is also one of the great undercover police movies--arguably surpassing Serpico and Prince of the City in richness of character, detail, and moral complexity. Donnie (Johnny Depp, a splendid actor) is practically adopted by Lefty Ruggiero (Al Pacino), a gregarious, low-level "made" man who grows to love his young protégé like a son. (Pacino really sinks into this guy's skin and polyester slacks, and creates his freshest, most fully realized character since his 1970s heyday.) As Donnie acclimates himself to Lefty's world, he distances himself from his wife (a terrific Anne Heche) and family for their own protection. Almost imperceptibly his sense of identity slips away from him. Questioning his own confused loyalties, unable to trust anybody else because he himself is an imposter, Donnie loses his way in a murky and treacherous no-man's land. The film is directed by Mike Newell, who also headed up Four Weddings and a Funeral and the gritty, true crime melodrama Dance with a Stranger. --Jim Emerson

This is one of the best gangster movies ever made. Great acting, great filmmaking.
The extended version is great, as the additional scenes flesh out the story and just make the movie all that better, with more scenes!
Nothing crazy about the extras - just a few solid featurettes.
