A movie you can't refuse

Rating: Null/10 (9 March 1999)

This is the #8 movie of all time. Classic scene after classic scene. Symphonic violence. Vengeance. Great characters. Characters that despite their violent nature you sympathize with them. You want to be Don Vito Corleone. There's not one flaw in this whole movie. You wish it was even longer. Seeing this as a child I wanted to grow up to be Luca Brasi. All elements of a man's movie can be linked here. Honor, Revenge, Violence, Separation of love and sex, loyalty, omerta, and family. There isn't a single second in this 170 minute movie that drags. There's great dialogue, great scenes, great characters, great acting. It's very difficult to choose among them. My only wish for this movie is that they had filmed more of Luca Brasi. He has plenty more explanation in the book. But all in all this is film making at its very very best. And it's just fun to watch.
