Masterpiece!

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 1999)

This movie was done in the style of Godfather II with its flashback format but, at 4 hours, it is almost as long as The Godfather Chronicles (remember, the re-edited TV version of The Godfather, combining both parts I and II?). People have complained about the length of the film but these same people would probably sit through a double bill of The Godfather. Don't let the length of this film deter you because it is probably one of the best movies that few have seen.
