A great analysis on culture, family, traditions and dirty business

Rating: 10/10 (17 September 1998)

I think Francis Ford Coppola has delivered an amazing analysis on family traditions with The Godfather, which I consider his masterpiece.
Considering that it opened in 1972, and analyzing all the violence-full sequences, it is not strange to read about it as "shocking" in several reviews.
The Godfather and The Godfather part II are some of the movies you just HAVE to see. In part II, F.F.C. tells two stories: Vito Corleone's acension to power and Michael Corleone's new life as the new Godfather.
I'd give them both an 11 out of 10.
