    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Lloyd Bridges' final film role. The film was released four months after his passing, and is dedicated to his memory. Bridges also starred in Meeting Daddy (2000), which was released two years after Mafia! (1998) but was filmed before the latter.
    • Goofs
      During the funeral barfing scene, five people make the rainbow in coloured barf. When the camera pans, you can obviously see the tip of the hose on the 3rd or 4th person.
    • Quotes

      Anthony Cortino: I'm not my father, Diane, just like you're not your father. If we were our fathers, what we did last night would only be legal in Arkansas.

    • Crazy credits
      The Eskimo solider, the only character seen walking during the wedding montage that didn't kill someone, enters a playroom where Barney the Dinosaur from Barney and Friends is watching an adult movie. The Eskimo pulls out his spear and kills Barney. Later in the credits, a caption informs us that a statue was built in his honor, and thousands of greatful parents visit it every year.
    • Alternate versions
      The version of the movie syndicated to stations by Buena Vista Television eliminates all of the joke credits from the final credit roll, presumably to save time.

    Watch this immediately after watching any mob/crime movie...

    Wow! You'd think by now Jim Abraham's material would be worn out and unoriginal. Think again. MAFIA! has got to be among one of the funniest parody films of the 1990s. This movie had me laughing for hours after I saw it, and even now when I think of some of the gags (especially the games in the casino) I can't help but to crack up. Also, the acting is BRILLIANT. Kudos to everyone who starred in the film! They all pulled off the ludicrously hilarious gags and delivered the most funny lines while keeping a straight face the entire time. I could never do that.
