It Wouldn't even be on my list-it's a very 'disneyfied' gangster film. Love the others mentioned, though!

Good film. Very entertaining and good for repeat watching.

But I would not rank this as my Top 2 gangster films, not even Top 5. But to each his own. Your other films are better though IMO.

nothing absolutely nothing will ever top
the original Godfather for me
Goodfellows and this are right behind it.

I'd say Goodfellas is one of the greatest films of all time, let alone one of the greatest gangster films.

OP, I loved your list, and I agree that they all are excellent. I also thought The Untouchables was one of the best gangster films. Great cast, great direction, script, music!
