One of the Best Mob Movies of all time!

Rating: Null/10 (28 May 2004)

The Godfather is definitely a masterpiece in every sense of the word. Probably the best Crime movie of the 70's. Plot: When Vito Corleone, a mafia leader, is wounded by another mob, his son Michael steps in and takes a part in the family business. Michael kills the people kills the people planning to get in their way, and then heads off to Sicily to hide. While he is gone, the family goes horrible downhill as the empire falls in a post-World War II during the 1940's. The best thing about the movie is that it is so interesting seeing the Mafia up close. It is so smart and brilliantly made by director Francis Ford Coppola. Wonderful acting by Brando, Pacino, Caan, and Duvall. Great film-editing and some of the best characters ever made in Hollywood. An excellent achievement. Best scene: Michael "excusing" himself from the restaurant from the police.
10/10 stars.
