Pesci was the best at playing Pesci. DeNiro is a far better and more versatile and nuanced an actor.

read yesterday the scene from Goodfella's (funny how) was all Joe, he was off the script & actually irritated

I disagree. If you’re gonna say one is better than the other, it’s only by a measure of inches. Because they are both pretty damn great.

For real. A Pesci villain is wicked as hell and way more deadly than a De Niro one.

DeNiro plays DeNiro, in 95% of his films he plays pretty much the same character.

Pesci can play Tommy DeVito in goodfellas and then someone like Harry in home alone....

It doesn't mean i think DeNiro is a bad actor, but Pesci is a lot better, Pesci is very underrated.
