Best movie of this year hands down!
To me, this movie is perfection.
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
After all the hype people have given this movie and the fact it won Best Picture confuses me.Most of it was just people sitting around talking. There were some good actiony scenes but they are few and far between, aside from Sonny's sister flipping her lid and smashing up the house, followed by the famous tollbooth scene a few minutes later.Speaking of the house-smashing scene, it's meant to be dramatic but I burst out laughing, but that's just my morbid sense of humor.Maybe I'm just not "getting it" and my head is up where the sun doesn't shine, but this movie was just...... kinda boring for me.
Awesome movieeeeeeeeeee I like these kind of moviessssssssssssssss
Easily the greatest movie I have ever seen. If you ever have a chance to watch this movie, TAKE THE CHANCE! Definitely worth watching.
There have been numerous Crime/Drama films that chronicle the lives of a Mafia family or certain outcast 'wiseguys', but none of them leave an impression as deep as the one left by The Godfather. That is because The GF isn't JUST a crime/drama, it rises above a genre, it's about family. The transformation of Michael Corleone is one of the greatest character stories in cinema history, from the reluctant family outsider to the ruthless mafia boss, about how the least involved son is forced to take over his fathers' empire. The intricacies in the storytelling, the twists in the plot get you every time. It makes these thugs seem not like dim-witted robbers, but suit-clad businessmen. This movie has managed to start up a legacy, a cult. The sheer power of it leaves one speechless and spellbound and perhaps that is why it is the greatest that celluloid has to offer.
