Absolutely hateful prick but credit for making us feel some sympathy in his final moments.

I was living in Chicago in the 80s and recall when Anthony Spilotro, the basis for Pesci's character, was killed and buried alive in a cornfield not far from Chicago.

Scary and yet good for a laugh.

It's often considered a just a rehash of the Tommy DeVito character. I don't think that's quite fair though. There are some similarities but Nicky was definitely a more mature, fleshed-out character.

You kidding? I love watching him get his well deserved comeuppance. What goes around, comes around.

Love it.
It is similar performance to Tommy Devito, but more entertaining, more humorous and more frightening.

Love it. It is similar to Tommy Devito, but more entertaining and dare I say, more terrifying. I agree. He's more mature and less reckless than Tommy.

His demise was oddly sad.

His demise was oddly sad. There's being whacked and then being forced to watch your brother get beat to death.

The sound of the aluminum bats hitting them makes my skin crawl. Clink, clink, clink
