Let's say it another way. Name me any 5-minute span within the movie that you think should have been cut out because it didn't reek of awesomeness.

There is a really short list of movies that can be said about. I nominate "The Blues Brothers" as one of them.

I don't want to start any tension here, but i definitely put Gran Torino in that category as well. I don't know how that didn't win an oscar.
 
The best scene is where karen goes to visit jimmy and he tries to get her to pick up some dresses, but she is too scared, great camera work, and we really understand how scared she is even though it doesn't really make sense. Scorsese genius.
 
I like the scene where he goes to pick up the cut coke and as he puts the last package into his bag he runs off real quick and teases the chick with a mischeivous laugh. She chucks her share of the coke at him, which hits the door as it slams shut and flies everywhere. You know in real life she would be snorting coke off the carpet for days.
 
I love the long scene where they're introducing everyone. "There was Vinny No-Nose, Pete the Killer ("Hey, I took care of that thing for ya.") Nicky Eyes, Jimmy Two-Times, ("I gotta go get the papers. Get the papers.")"
