a true work of art (spoilers)

Rating: 10/10 (28 August 2001)

All I can say is that this is the best movie of all time. it has a great plot, excellent acting, great costume and set design, outstanding direction, and a very beautiful soundtrack. The Godfather has many famous scenes such as the restaurant scene when Michael(Al Pacino) kills Solozzo(Al Lettieri) and McCluskey(Sterling Hayden), and when the movie pezzonovante wakes up with the severed head of his prized horse in his bed. There's the brutal killing of Sonny, the gunning of Don Vito(Marlon Brando) across from his office, the car bombing of Apollonia, and the opening scene with Amerigo Bonasera(Salvatore Corsitto) telling the Don about how his daughter was beaten brutally.
Though the most incredible scene is the Baptism Sequence. Word's cannot describe it. The way the organ goes from a mellow to haunting and how it goes back and forth between the church and the assassins preparing to kill the heads of the other New York families and the actual killing of the Dons. This is Francis Ford Coppola at his best.
10/10
