Showed me how to organize my empire

Rating: 9/10 (16 July 2015)

The godfather was my first introduction to the organization and rules behind the Italian mafia. Only after that I started to see how this was crucial to success of a criminal organization. Sculpted like and inspired by the Roman empire is a method that really worked. It changed somewhat during the years, but my empire is still run in a similar way.
Great movie without too much overacting. Some of the shots even look too much like it was shot in an amateuristic live situation. Part 2 & 3 were a real addition and the trilogy is definitely worth watching.
The only drawback: They made it seem that crime doesn't pay. Nobody was happy and everybody died. Greatly exaggerated!
