It doesnt compare because the others aren't criminally overrated.

Goodfella's for me.
I love Once Upon a Time in America, but I wouldn't say it is as much of a Mafia flick as is Goodfella's, which to me, is the quintessential Mafia movie.
Donnie Brasco was a very close second (and was the first film that popped into my mind).
