Rating: B+ --
Just misses ranking in the upper echelon of mob movies.

Unfortunately, the story isn't inventive and Newell's methodical approach to it verges on monotony.

Rating: 5/5 --
[Newell and Attanasio] pay as much attention to emotional details as to the clockwork details of mob life.

Rating: 3/5 --
A clever insight into the everyday, professional banalities of life as a low to mid-level gangster.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
Depp's tight, guarded performance is almost painful to watch, and Newell seems to have reined in the flamboyant Pacino, whose portrait of the mobster as a grumpy old man may be his best work in years.

TV Guide
...For Johnny Depp, DONNIE BRASCO breaks new ground; he seems a little older here, a little wearier, and he makes the transition from stoolie to friend one subtle step at a time...
Chicago Sun-Times
...An ambitious film with an effective and modulated performance by Al Pacino...
Los Angeles Times
Product Description:
Joe Pistone (Johnny Depp) is an FBI mole who integrates himself into the Mafia pecking order by posing as "jewel man" Donnie Brasco. He finds his loyalties divided when Lefty Ruggiero, a jaded hit man, takes him on as a protégé and places real trust in him. The two men form a friendship--and a criminal partnership--that jeopardizes Brasco's mission and obscures the boundaries between the law and the underworld. The film is based on the autobiography DONNIE BRASCO, MY UNDERCOVER LIFE IN THE MAFIA by former undercover agent Joseph D. Pistone. Directed by Mike Newell (FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL) and also starring Bruno Kirby (THE FRESHMAN, THIS IS SPINAL TAP), Michael Madsen (RESERVOIR DOGS) and Anne Heche (WAG THE DOG).
