Am I the only one who finds GoodFellas to be pretty overrated? I've watched it a few times (most recently saw a few minutes of it on CinemaxHD), and even though it has its merits, there's very little about the film that interests me at all. I actually think The Godfather Part III is my favorite of the Best Picture nominees from that year.

Haven't seen enough to make a list, but my two favorites of 1990 were White Hunter, Black Heart and To Sleep With Anger.
