The Best Film Ever Made

Rating: 10/10 (26 July 2018)

"The Godfather" was a phenomenon for its time and still is over forty years later. The acting, writing, directing; everything is perfection.
This film is about the Corleone crime family and centers around Michael Corleone, son of the head of the family Vito Corleone. Al Pacino's acting is beyond perfect to the point where I can even say it is the best male acting performance. Watching his character going from kind-hearted and generous to a cold pathological liar made me feel everything that the characters felt. The most amazing part is the chilling ending when Michael is confronted by his sister, who claims he killed her husband. After she is taken out of the room, Michael's wife Kay talks to him about this and tearfully asks if he did murder his sister's husband. Michael denies everything, and Kay believes him. When she leaves the room, she spots her husband in a regal position being treated like an emperor by three people who have just entered his office. It is in this moment when Kay realizes that her husband has lied to her, and she is a fool for marrying an evil murderer.
