Miller's Crossing - Not similar to Snatch, Pulp Fiction, etc, but it is a great underrated film that seperates it self from other gangster movies.
El Mariachi
Reservoir Dogs

GoodFellas is the best. Then there's the Godfather of course.

Goodfellas
The Godfather Trilogy [yes, even Part III is great]
Reservoir Dogs
Miller's Crossing
Once Upon a Time in America
Mean Streets
The Untouchables [though I'd say it's more of a cop movie]
Donnie Brasco

Boyz In The Hood.
If you want to see a real gangster film, go rent Reservoir Dogs. It's not "nigga, I kill you!" crap.

i never did get to see mean streets. is it really good?
Robert Crumb

Pretty good. I really wanted to punch De Niro's character in the face. He plays him damn good and just so... fklpdof. I know people like that. But I still think Taxi Driver is still better.
Also, Jackie Brown: :thumb:

State Of Grace. Underrated and underseen Irish Mob flick with Sean Penn and Gary Oldman. Also Ed Harris as a tough mob boss. It's very good. John Turturro and Robin Wright Penn, as well.
EDIT: Not the best, but it's never mentioned and well worth your time if you like the genre.

Every movie I was going to say has already been said.
Maybe you can count "Confidence". I can't think of any else right now.

All the good ones have already been mentioned, like The Godfathers 1 and 2, Goodfellas, The Untouchables, Scarface, etc. Never been a big fan of Tarantino.

Reservior Dogs is my fav. Goodfellas is great and The Usual Suspects is one of my favourite movies, also.

I love that bit in the hospital, "Key-zer So-ze! Key-zer So-ze!"
I don't think Casino has been mentioned.
